Lima, Peru 🇵🇪

After arriving late last night we start quite leisurely this morning. Justin is due to land around 4pm so I have booked a recommended restaurant Panchita for 7pm.  Steve and I catch a Uber to the Larco museum.  This is the main museum in Lima, but I think I am more impressed by the building.  It is a old white 18th century building with lush gardens, ferns hanging from pots and masses of colourful Bougainvillea.  The pre-Colombian art is great, taking you through thousands of years and showing the evolution of different parts of Peru.  There is a large section of erotic pottery which I was surprised to find.

We caught a ride back to Miraflores for lunch with Tricia, who is now in Lima.  Shivani was also there, which was a lovely surprise.  Enjoyed our reunion over fresh hot sandwiches.  We bid goodbye to walk back to our hotel and strolled through Parque Kennedy on the way.

Justin took ages to get in from the airport as the traffic is really that bad.  Poor guy looked tired as we let him dump his bag before rushing to our dinner reservation.  We ordered too much, but gave it a good go, even the chicken trifle (causes). It was great to be with old friends catching up on all things.
