Street over from office

Last Sunday after church and after dinner we decided to go for a walk. These buildings are what I can see out my window as I sit at my desk. They are just a block south of the office.The building on the right is the Swishotel. This is a 5 star hotel in which the general authorities stay when they visit Lima. The 4 mission presidents live just a couple of blocks from the hotel.

There are hundreds and hundreds of little vendors selling their wares from clothing, dolls, purses, jewelry etc. We didn't buy anything but got a good idea of some of the things that they have.

One of many highways in Lima. This is Avenida Arequipa that runs north and south. Maybe 9-10 blocks from our apartment. During rush hour this road will be packed.

On our P-day we went to Miraflores and ate at a fantastic restaurant just above the cliff. The tall building in the background is the Marriott hotel. The name of the restaurant was Mangos. It was buffet.
