Lima first impressions

Im happy to say we began our trip with an adventure.

After over an hour of driving around lima asking for directions from every passerby we finally found our hole in the wall hostel just before 2am. Needless to say we slept in and then set out to find some breakfast.

Three hours later we sat down to lunch that redefined my defination of tortillas, maybe anything fried and flattened fits the defination. Three hours we spent staring blankly as buses whizzed by yelling their destination, and then walking several miles with maps in hand winding through pencil venders, hired street type writers and colonial mansions.

Once we finally reached the historical center of lima the day was almost spent and we took a tour of San fransico monestary and the catacombs below it.

Until next time!
