That's it, keep rubbing it in )). Seriously though, thanks for posting all of these. I could spend an hour looking through all of these. Thanks to you I now feel compelled to get lowland fantastica and trivittata....

Wow... amazing... thanks for sharing this. I wish I did something like this when I visited Peru. I only remember the bars and a bad sunburn.
