... the ocean about 12 blocks from our hotel and walked along the cliffs for a while. Then we went to a market and shopped for a little bit. Tomorrow is pretty open - I don't know excatly what we will do but it is our last full day in Pery so I am sure we will at least get some delicious Peruvian food! Let me tell you, it is nice to be back in a country where we enjoy the food!

I think I mentioned before that we have been talking about all of the thigs we have to ...

Lima gave us time for one last toilet flush the wrong way, a few pisco sours and then another failed upgrade attempt on the flight to Miami. They didn't even let us sit together. Its very nice to be heading closer to home and for a bit of Summer again.

... was comfortable and friendly and even ran into a German traveler I had met in Panama! Small world. Most of our time in Lima was spent trying to find out about visas for Ronal but we managed to squeeze in some sightseeing. There is a double decker tourist bus that departs from the park in Miraflores and we took that for a tour of the city and a ...

... ber die Anden und den Titicacasee kamen wir am Donnerstag, dem 6. August von Sao Paulo in Lima (Pizarro gründete Lima unter dem Namen Ciudad de los Reyes = Stadt der Könige) an und sind direkt zum Haus von unserer Tante Eliana Schröder im Stadtteil Surco, südlich des Zentrums gefahren. Wir wurden von ihr wunderbar empfangen und durften die folgenden drei Tage bei ihr bleiben. Wir haben uns sehr gefreut, dass sie Zeit für uns hatte und uns von der Geschichte der ...

... plane, my lips became numb, my fingers started tingling, and my head felt so light and was quite dizzy. "I thought to myself,,,,,,Cool, I like this feeling"! It was like having a small buzz from a glass or two of wine, I never dreamed altitude sickness would set in so quickly, but by the time I walked from the plane to the inside of the airport I was so fatigued and gasping for air. I didn't think I was ...

... perhaps some white water rafting, before we head off to do our 5 day trek to Machu Picchu.

So not really too much to share, but I wanted you all to know about the violent attack on my eye. I will open up an online register where you can leave your wishes and sympathy. I am also thinking of starting a "I have been attacked by my wife" charity fund. More to come on that...

Cheers,

... to myself when I got on, "can this thing really fly???" I guess so - I'm still alive. J I got to Newark around 8:15 and had a very long layover (almost 7 hours!). While there I painted my nails, relaxed, called some family and friends, took a nice long nap, ate lunch, and worked on the computer a bit. Guess I got a lot done now that I think about it! I really enjoyed the layover, actually. It was relaxing - a time to get myself ready for the trip. I got ...

... was her first trip away, which is pretty brave for a first trip in my opinion. We got on pretty well considering the differenc in age, I couldn´t help mentioning to her that I was her age when I had my first proper travelling experience (I went to Singapore, Thailand, Hong Kong and Autralia for a couple of months). Sometimes i forget how much older I am than most of my fellow travellers but my parents kindly pointed out to me later that I was old enough to ...

... who spoke English. We tried anticuchos for the first time. They are sliced heart of cow grilled on skewers. They were actually not bad. The Chinese buffet was fairly similar to American Chinese food-stuff like wonton soup, fried rice, chicked with veggies, tofu, etc. One of the chiefs of the department brought a bottle of whiskey which Nils appreciated.
