The rich get richer

The landowners have the big houses.  This hacienda was owned by the church until they were expelled in the 1600's.

The workers live in small rooms on the hacienda.

This herd of goats, sheep and donkeys crossed in front of us.  We aren't sure what they find to graze on.

The cows also live on this hacienda.

They have a bit of everything.  Usually, haciendas are self sufficient and grow what they need.  This cotton field is harvested by hand.  In Ica where the fields are larger, they do use machines to harvest.  A pretty yellow blossom  before  the soft puff ball you see in the front.
