We only had a short stop in Lima after a long bus ride from Arequipa. Our flight was the next day to Rio. As we didn't feel to safe with cameras in Peru and especially in Lima with it's "reputation", we didn't take the camera with us on our city exploration tour. There are many beautiful buildings and churches. On the plaza in front of the palace stood a huge Christmas tree. Actually it was a huge cone with different colorful objects decorated around it. It was probably one of the most tasteful decorated trees we've seen. We slept in a hostel which was more an art gallery then a hostel. We were located on the top floor, were a turtle crawled around, birds sat on sculptures and the plants made it feel like a botanical garden. A very pretty location. As Lima is a place were food is one of the top priorities, we went to try different ceviches in different locations.
What is ceviches? Find out with Wikipedia:
Wikipedia/CevicheIt was fantastic. We also tasted other food offered on the street. We had a good last rest after playing with the puppy which we found peeing in front of our room door.
The next morning our preordered taxi didn't show up, so we joined an English couple in their taxi. Thanks for the ride again! After some confusion with the check in location we successfully managed to get this procedure behind us as well and get rolling for Brazil.
