Lima, Perú

I had a few days in Lima where I met up with the rest of the group (I had signed up for a package deal ages ago). I also met a cousin for dinner one night and a friend of a friend on another two nights. It was a lovely few days. The ceviche was amazing and the beach was foggy - a lot like San Francisco. Did you know it never rains in Lima? Never (well, not quite...the last down pour was in nineteen seventy something). Oh yes, it was Easter and the whole place was closed down on Good Friday for services, except for one museum.  It was well worth the visit. For Easter, street vendors everywhere were selling Wawa bread (baby shaped bread supposed to be offered up to God...or just eaten) and little crucifixes wrapped in Palm leaves. Interesting.
