P day at Jockey Plaza



Yesterday for our P day we went to Jockey Plaza. A large mall with hundreds of shops. We primarily went to Ace Hardware to buy paint to touch up under our cabinet in the kitchen that had some minor water damage. Karen was also able to buy some make up at Saga Falabella. She also bought a pair of Sketchers shoes. We also ate lunch at a Chineese Buffet which is part of Bennihanas.



As we were crossing over the road to catch the bus on the other side, notice that the trees still have blossoms and we are getting very close to winter.

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.
