Today I made a mega sloth wandering to the McDonald's in Frankfurt-Kalbach. They had no milkshake. I tried that weird smoothie stuff. I carry moths in my fur. This has nothing to do with this photo, it's from yesterday. I just think you should wear sunglasses. Imagine a sloth with sunglasses now! ...(and beautiful moths flying around, embraced by magical sun rays and David Hasselhoff singing in the back). This photo shows something, figure it out by yourself. I am too lazy now.

There I sat in my bus back from Cusco. Shortly afterwards we were stuck in traffic.😒 These were my last hours in Peru. 🚌 In the video first you see the district of San Juan de Miraflores, then Santiago de Surco. That's about a week after the 2018 Peruvian regional and municipal elections.
On the way to the Islas Ballestas you also pass the Paracas Candelabra. The figure is 595 feet (181 meters) tall. It can be seen 12 miles at sea. Little is known about the origin. Nearby ceramics of the Paracas people were found. These were the previous culture before the Nazca culture, known for their giant geoglyphs in the desert.
🌊The Islas Ballestas are a group of small islands. They are part of a nature reserve and home to numerous animal species.🐧💩 Thousands of seabirds produce guano here. This is caused by the reaction of bird droppings and limestone and is traditionally used as a fertilizer 🚜, but also in the production of explosives💣. The word guano comes from Quechua, where it's called "wanu". 🤓 Responsible for the chemical reaction is the nucleobase guanine contained in the bird's urine.
The American oystercatcher (Haematopus palliatus) at the beach of Paracas, Peru.🏖 ☝It has a longer bill than the European oystercatcher (H. ostralegus). The American wears a brown coat, the European a black one.
The Pachacutec Monument in Cusco includes a small museum and you can enjoy the view from above. Pachacutec transformed the Kingdom of Cusco into the Inca Empire. He is probably the most popular Inca and you will find portraits throughout the country.
The Waldspirale in Darmstadt, Germany. I always loved the philosophy of Hundertwasser. For the same reasons why I appreciate César Manrique (I'll tell another time). During my first two years of school (in Frankfurt), I drove past a kindergarten designed by Hundertwasser every day. "Why wasn't I in THIS kindergarten?" I always asked myself.
This picture shows me last summer when I spontaneously cycled to Darmstadt in the middle of the night. I arrived just in time for sunrise at the Waldspirale. In my opinion, all buildings should look more natural! This one contains 105 apartments and a parking garage. "Why don't I live there?" ...
The Islas Ballestas are a group of small islands. They are part of a nature reserve and home to numerous animal species. It was cool and a bit foggy, which are the best prepositions to see all the animals. For example, sea lions! When it gets hot during the day, they disappear in the ocean.
