The Forbes´ get religion

Ok, so the title might be slightly misleading but we did spend a very interesting afternoon walking round the Santa Catalina monastery. This is a small walled city within the city of Arequipa which is still used as an active nunnery today. There are several narrow streets to wander round with many of the Nun´s cells visible. A facinating insight into how nuns lived from the 16th Century to today. Anyone fancy trying barbed wire knickers to find the faith or reach enlightment?
