Carabaya ( Ucayali 201 ) Lima, Peru
Hi us again, Still in Lima and having fun. We are endeavouring to do our best to build international relations with Peru but my corny jokes are not understood by them , lose something in the translation I think. Lima is full of beautiful 500 year old buildings, churches, cathedrals etc. The place rocks. Very vibrant, busy, ratrace, like being dr...

Lima, Peru kimbellItīs a transit day with a 9 hour bus ride to Lima. The scenery is pretty harsh. Once you leave the city it just suddenly stops and there is nothing but desert. Some areas are planted with some sort of crop and you can see the rows of green, but the majority of the time it was just sand dunes and mountains. We followed the coast and when we were ...
Lima, Peru sarah.nichollsHad a city tour this morning. We walked around the main square and went into the Öur Ladies of the Rosarie Chruch for the Dominic OrderĻ. This church holds the remains of some Peruvian Saints. Went into the Convento De San Francisco. This is still a convent. It had a beautiful courtyard and the walls were covered in mosaics. The library looked l...

Yesterday I took a bus from Ames, Iowa to Rockford, Illinois and stayed at my friend's house. My friend was gracious enough to wake up at 3:30AM to drop me off at a bus stop. I then took that bus to the Chicago airport and flew to Houston, Texas for a 6 hour layover. Since I had so much time and Iīd never been to Texas before I had decided to le...

Well currently I am sitting in the Lima airport in the food court. I am unable to check into my flight home until 10:00 p.m. What am I going to do all of this time. I don’t know but Pizza is in my future. This morning I had breakfast and exchanged information with Estela. She said she enjoyed having me there. I was g...
Hola!
So we've been having a great time in Peru! So much going on it's hard to put down in words. As you all know, we headed to Machu Picchu last week. To say it is amazing is an understatement.... it is so spectacular. We got up early and were there by 5.30 in the morning to try and beat the crowds. It was a really misty morning, and clo...
Our first impression of Lima was cloudy and overcast, and that didnīt really change the whole day. If the Andes are visible from Lima I wouldnīt know, we canīt see much at all.
We are staying in Miraflores which is very much a tourist district - perched on a cliff looking out over the Pacific Ocean. Our basic orientation walk turned into ...

Heading East to Brasil Via an Overnight Bus West to Lima
Flying throughout South America is expensive. Ungodly expensive. It is no wonder that airlines are going broke left and right; it is cheaper to buy a round-trip ticket than it is to by a one-way ticket in many instances. There is no ...
Hola de Peru! Today we were able to see a lot more of Lima. We took a huge tour bus around the different districts of Lima and saw a ton of historical spots. One really cool spot we stopped at was an archaeological site. We also saw the main plaza, Plaza De Armas. It was a really inter sting area because surrounding Plaza de Armas was the where ...
