We arrived to blue skies and warmer temperatures in Lima. (Lima normally has terrible weather with a thick fog that hangs over the city for 9 months of the year, but we happened to visit during their very short and pleasant summer) Despite Lima being a really big city, we stayed in the Miraflores area by the beach and really enjoyed our stay there. The city has a very modern feel, and they are known for their excellent food, and we couldn't have agreed more!

| Lima's very rocky beach. |

| Typical Peruvian food: Anticucho (beef heart skewers!), choclo (Peruvian corn on the cob, which is much easier to eat than our corn), pisco sour cocktails (very delicious drink with white wine brandy and egg whites) |
 |
| And of course we had to try Cuy Picante (spicy guinea pig!) Take note of the head and claws still attached. |
