In May I went home for a week and a half and it was delicious. I went to Jamie's graduation, Jen and Matt's wedding, and hung out with friends and family, especially for my birthday and Mother's Day. And everything was GREEN! Like THIS:
a guy and a mototaxi coming down the road
eating soup after church for a parish fundraiser (this picture actually taken by Sister Edna last year, but we did it again this year)
Appreciate your green, people. It is one of the things you regard as normal, but the people here don't necessarily get to enjoy. Kind of like indoor heating, a fully constructed house, a washing machine, stoves and ovens you don't have to light with a match, sunny days during winter, paved roads, non-junkpile-worthy cars, etc.
That said... here are some long overdue pictures of my dear Chorrillos. My apologies for the lack of visual journalism so far this year.

The market! It looks much prettier on a sunny day
this is where I buy chicken. 
Construction! They're turning the soccer pitch into a stadium.
