We're in Peru ! ! !

The months of planning and preparation are behind us now. We spend a few days in Lima, the noisy busy capital city. Here we are on the Plaza de Armas, the central town square. We didn't care to stay too long in the big city, but we did find some pleasures, including a great natural foods store that served delicious yogurt and granola for breakfast.

Lima has beaches but they aren't so inviting,  but we did enjoy a little beach play time that first day in Peru. Time difference is only 2 hours ahead of Seattle time, so not much jet lag.
