Pit stop in Lima - Blogabond

Lima, Peru

We had a quick stop in Lima on January 10th. Erin and I took a flight from Cusco to Lima to pick up my sister Jaime from the airport. Our hostel was located south of Lima about 15 minutes. Lima is very large compared to Cusco. Jaime did not arrive in Lima until 11:00 pm so Erin and I caught a cab to the center of Lima. In most cities in Peru the central plaza is called the Plaza de Armas, it gets confusing when you are in a city the size of Lima, because even the suburbs have a Plaza de Armas.

There were so many people walking around the square that we could not even find a safe place to walk without running into someone. We had a good meal, ate some icecream and went to the airport to pick up Jaime. She arrived in good spirits.

Shawn - Looks like you are having a great time! Enjoy this experience!
