Frances buying a .40 avacado

Not exactly the tourist market but an adventure going to the local bi-weekly market.  We wandered around with our guide Hector and he explained things to us.  We bought some items to try.  Kay kept saying he wanted a Duck, we all laughed and as we were getting on the bus, he came up missing.  Henry went to look for him.  I told Hector he was probably buying a duck.. and he was.

Our bus mates named the duck Crackers, he was hungry and thirsty and wandered the bus freely.

prickly pear being fixed for us.  Pretty good!

Our first stop was the salt ponds and Kay gave the duck to the bathroom attendant who had a sign 1 sol which is .40, she said the two of us could use the restroom for free and an hour later she was still petting it on her lap!  She told her guide she saw Kay's name tag which said Que on one side and renamed the duck Que.
