Entry 1 of 3 | show all | print this entry

Well we made it into Lima but it was a grueling flight from Fort Lauderdale to Bogota Columbia to Lima, Peru.  Upon entering the bustling city there was a private taxi waiting for us with Luke's name on a sign.  We arrived at 4 in the morning and had no clue what we were going to do considering most of our plans consisted of we will figure it out. None the less Luke had a friend of his brother that lives in Lima set it up for us and let us stay at her place for four days. 
    I wasn't impressed by Lima but it did have some interesting things to offer. The town it self was very similar to Mexico city crazy drivers and enough smog to choke a donkey.   I wont get to far into details only because i am starting this blog a month into my travels and i really need to catch up to today which is 10/9/08.  So here is a quick synopsis of what went on in Lima:
*Took a two story bus to check the sites of  historical Miraflores in Lima.
*Went to some ruins outside of Lima in a cab had our own personal tour guide for 3$ which made the trip worth it.  The ruins pretty much looked like a mound of dirt with some building around it.
*Check out a potato exhibit in National Museum of Peru. Did u know there is over 5000 species of potatoes in Peru they love that dam root down here.  It reminded me of work the last two years making chips.
* Hit the discotecas up. the Party itself was sponsored by cotex weird i thought and no they didn't give free tampons as far as i know. We went with Cathy the girl we were staying with. We partied until 6:00 in the morning dancing and acting a fool. I would have to say it was a horrible idea because we had to catch a bus the following morning at 8:00 in the morning.


Where I stayed:
Cathy´s House
