... Jeff used to live. Once again the stories of this event came to life for me. Seeing Jeff ride his bike and being told Uncle Tom had been shot. The sacrifices these missionaries made to spread the gospel comes alive. Uncle Tom was shot on the stairs of the picture I have posted.<br><br>We experienced the CENTER of Lima today. We met our friends Herbert and Isabel in Centre de Lima where the presidential palace is at. We ...

As the wall of water subsides, he makes a dash for safety but an evil water jet has other ideas and an accurate shot from the ground to the groin gives Sven the look of incontinence. There&#8217;s no fool like an old fool!<br><br>We retreat to an Argentinian restaurant that also serves fish (for Debbie) where the waiters eye Sven suspiciously.

No need to go to a Fun Fair: a bus or taxi ride gives you just as much thrill. The traffic lights seems to be there for decoration only, or if the vehicule has brakes, which doesn't seem to be an absolute requirement!<br>Taxis and buses stop at any time, anywhere, and to get off a bus, you need to be ...

... luggage as I brought the whole U.S. with me but...I'll figure it out....somehow... After we got the vases, we had to carry them around and looked like total tourists. I felt so silly with my huge vase in tow! We went to look for luggage because Jasmine wanted to buy an extra bag to take with her to Cusco.

... see our passports and one gave Taylor´s backpack a quick poke. In hindsight, the locals accompanying us probably ensured our safety during the inspection. They all became vigilant with our Peruvian grandmothers almost exerting a maternal protection over their gringo grandsons. Shortly after that, the I noticed a sharp change in scenery to a flat, desert landscape. Forty more minutes of driving down the straight road ...

I hope Huaraz is a nice place, getting a bit fed up of having to be on guard all the time and restricted to where we can walk. Get on the bus tonight at 10:30 and arrive in Huaraz at 6:00am.
