A Cajamarcan scavenger hunt

Last weekend, as part of the goodbye party we threw for the soon-departing Cajamarca 18er volunteers, we decided to have a scavenger hunt. The volunteers divided up into three teams, and we set off on a very strange quest across Cajamarca city. We were allotted one hour to secure photographical evidence of our team completing the hunt's six challenges, and I'm proud to say my team achieved all six... although we didn't end up winning the competition. But the resulting laughs and pictures were prize enough for us :)

#1: get a campo man/woman to let you wear their traditional hat

#2: find an example of a strange/funny English translation

#3: find an all-white cuy... we couldn't find a live one, but these ready-to-cook cuys were pretty white

#4: eat a chicken foot - luckily Gabe was willing to take one for the team here

#5: find a man-dressed-as-woman selling candy (this is a weird but common thing in Peru) - since we didn't find one of the real ones, Gabe again stepped up to the plate, with the help of some balloons

#6: make a human pyramid on the top of Santa Apolonia (a really big hill with lots of steps leading up it)
