lima at 10.30 PM SAT NIGHT IS A HOPING PLACE! WE WERE GREETED BY THRONGS OF PEOPLE YELLING MANY THINGS <(WHO KONW WHAT) IN SPANISH. I THINK THEY WERE TRYING TO GET US TO RIDE WITH THEM. fORTUNATELY mah HAD PREARRANGED THE CAB AND WE WERE NOT HAVING TO FIGURE THAT MAD SCENE OUT!QUITE SHOCKING WHEN YOU COMPARE THAT SCENE TO THE BUCOLIC SCENE OF THE HOME AIRPORT!
oUR WEATHER TODAY IS OVERCAST AND I CAN´T TELL IF IT´S POLLUTION OR FOG. THE FORECAST CALL FOR BOTH. OUR PLAN TO DAY VENTURE OUT ON THE STREETS FOR A SHORT WHILE BEFORE GOING TO THE AIRPORT(AKA SCREAMING THONGS, AND CATCH OUR FLIGHT TO AREQUIPA. WE ARETOLD THIS CITY IS MUCH SMALLER AND VERY BEAUTIFUL. THE CITY IS IN THE CRADLE OF THE MONTAINS.Ç
OK WE ARE AT INKA LODGE NOW AND IT LOOKS LIKE A GREAT SET UP PEOPLE VERY ACCOMODATING FOR OUR SILLY TOURIST REQUESTS (TOWELS, WATER, ETC) AND THERE IS A LOVELY COURTYARD WITH A SMALL QUAINT BAT TO HAVE A PISC0 SOURNOT YET THOUGH AS IT IS ONLY 7:30 A.M. WE WILL MOST LIKELY STAY HERE ON OUR RETURN WITH THE HOPES OF STAYING LONGER ON OUR RETURN.
