cacti in Lima

Post by pieter »

Hello all,
Last month, in december, I was in Lima visiting my wife's family and I enjoyed my stay there to do some trips to the cactushabitats nearby. I put together a small page with a selection of the photo's I took so share with you.

Many thanks, Pieter, for sharing your latest adventure with us. I always enjoy seeing habitat photos of opuntias and columnar cacti. Best wishes,

Lots of very nice pictures.

I am very curious how you have got the link to Google Earth to work, please?

Thanks
Chris.

Chris, you need to have google earth installed on your computer. Once you have it installed, just open the file.
Kind regards,
Pieter
