Quote of the Day!

This morning, some friends and I took the Mira Lima bus all over the city checking out the touristy and history sites.  Please envision me sitting on the top deck of a red double decker tourist bus.  I am not a fan of looking like a tourist, but since I was already on the bus, I decided to whip out my camera and enjoy the chance to snap a bunch of pictures of Lima.  The tour was very educational, good practice for my Spanish and I got to spend hours outside!  I got to see new parts of Lima and discover some places that I want to go back to.  There are some really beautiful parks in this desert city.

I laughed so hard when the tour guide said "Please mind your heads as we pass under the electrical cables and don't touch them."  As we started out on the tour, I realize why she said it.  The bus is so tall, that we were ducking so that we wouldn't be caught by the electrical and telephone wires!  I wish I'd captured a better picture to share.  Amidst the laughter and ducking, I forgot.  Oh life in Peru!  It's so great!
