Hello one and all. So I have tried and tried in vain to get the video blog posts working, but to no avail. As a result, if you are interested in hearing what we are up to you will have to settle for boring old text posts ;) Well, hopefully the posts aren't boring hahah
And as we are now a day behind, I will start with yesterday -
The first thing we did, after landing in Lima at 5:30am, was head straight to the hotel and take a five hour nap, waking in time to take a stroll, grab some lunch, and meet up with our Lima guide, Minuska, at 2pm. We did a bunch of interesting sightseeing, with my highlight being some creepy ass catacombs at the Saint Franciscan Monastery filled with femurs and skulls - unfortunately no photos allowed or I would share the creepatcular with you all. For the family reading this, Mom and I did indeed randomly run into Jane and Jerry at one of the museums! Talk about small world... Dinner at Astrid&Gaston, a restaurant which served foamy, small-plated, pretentious yet delicious cuisine. We ate your guinea pig. Yes, the lovable rodents many Americans have as pets. We ate it and the crispy skin was mouth-watering ;)
Interesting Factoid - cab drivers in Lima can charge whatever they want, so if they see you and your Rolex expect to pay more
Today's post will come shortly...
