Sightseeing today. Visted the Museo Santury. It houses the famous Ice Mummy - Juanita. A guided tour included a video of how Juanita was found in 1995. There are many exhibits of Inca offerings found with the mummified remains culminating with a display of a mummifed girl, Sarita. Juanita
is not on display from November to April, but housed in a nearby
university where there is research being done to determine her
genealogy, and other things.

Spent the afternoon chilling at the hotel, still in delicate recovery mode.
En-route
to dinner, stopped for a look at some of the Artesenias markets near San
Francisco church. Methinks there will be a visit there tomorrow to
purchase some local wares.
Dinner at a restaurant in a laneway just behind the Cathedral. Jack, Jenny and Andrew ordered the alpaca steaks!
