Familiar Faces in Foreign Places

Meeting Brad in Lima was such a wonderful feeling. To see a familiar face in a foreign country is a wonderful slice of home when traveling abroad.
We spend two days wondering around Lima and exploring the huge, chaotic, diverse, and bustling city. According to some critics, the food of Lima has "surpassed the cuisine of Paris." 
We had fun trying some different restaurants in the city and stumbled upon very delicious ceviche and gourmet creations. We walked to the beach and watched the surfers in the break. The smooth black stones rolled and made a wonderful sound every time the water crashed on the shore, stumbling and rolling when the water receded.

Exploring the urban area was neat but in the end we decided it was very similar to any other metropolis and we had had our fill. 


We were ready to surround ourselves in some of the world's largest and most beautiful mountains, the Andes.
