Arrived in Peru yesterday at 10:30pm after a long haul of flying from Auckland via Santiago. From the plane the recent earthquake devistation in Chile was not evident. However, when we entered the Santiago airport a lot of the airport was boarded up, the walls and ceilings were cracked and a lot of the ceiling had been removed. They were hard at work fixing the mess but there is a lot of work still ahead to get it back to a decent standard.
We arrived in Peru and decided to go and check the night life out for a quiet beer, which changed into a long night out in Mira Flores. The difficulty so far is not just the language but also the fact that people here know how to dance and you can´t get away with just waving your arms around on a dance floor as people point and laugh at you. The people have been very nice though and try there best to communicate in English with you.
Went for a walk around Mira Flores today. The town was just buzzing with markets, people and music. We saw bands play in the street and people everywhere enjoying the beach and parks.
We walked along the beach front and visited the markets and malls. This shopping mall is Larco Mar and has been built into a cliff face above the sea. What looks like sea mist or fog is actually smog. The main centre is not affected by this but it was everywhere near the sea ruinning what might be a fantastic view of the Pacific Ocean. Very impressed by Peru so far very nice people and lots to see.
bro, the honeypot will blow their minds
ReplyDeleteHa, i was just going to suggest a Honeypot as well. They won't be pointing and laughing when the girls are all over you.
