Lima LIfe

April 22

We're staying in a hotel in a safe, quiet district of the city, not in the tourist district.  That has it's advantages.  Over this past long weekend it was dead quiet with very little traffic noise.  This morning we awoke to the reality of Lima - non-stop horns honking!

We've become familiar faces at the Cafe Sofa restaurant half a block away as it's usually too late (dark) to venture out much further for dinner.  There's a regular shopping mall about a 10 minute walk away.  I was almost able to get through making a purchase without needing English language help.  Lots of point and smile. 

Before we leave this city we'll have to find the tourist market to bring home some treasures.
