July 18th


The week before changes we went to the Inka Market to purchase some things for our grandchildren. The Newbolds who live in Bountiful are coming to pick up her son from his mission and are bringing two empty suitcases to take some of our things back to the USA. It turned out that we sent 77 lbs. of books, clothing, gifts, recuerdos, etc. We also bought the sweater that Karen is wearing at another booth for about $5. It is Alpaca wool.

Inka Shops

Inka Shops
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.
