Family Home evening July 6, 2009



When we go to the Area office, MTC or the temple we never know about the traffic. If we go any time after 5:15 in the afternoon it will take at least an hour to get there. Well we went to Home Evening and left just after 5:00. We were ahead of the traffic and got over there in a half hour. So we walked around the temple grounds. Our Home Evening was held at the temple presidents house which is in the corner of the grounds.


The templed is very beautiful. The flowers are in bloom year around even though we are in winter.


We saw this beautiful Hybiscus.



This is our group. Though on the 13th, the Earls from Moses Lake, Washington, The Davies from Sandy, Utah and Elders from Springville, Utah will all be going home. Who knows if we will ever see them again. The Earls already have another call to be the MTC President in Madrid, Spain January 1, 2010.

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.
