Last Day!!!
We can't believe it!!!
The first day on our own in Lima, we went north along the coast. Yesterday was our marathon (poor Brett), 8 miles, probably, heading south. Today we went east. We were hoping to see the ruins of Huaca Pucllana, a pre Inca site, 200 - 900 AD. The ruins themselves were closed today. Bummer. But we walked around the perimeter, and got a look at them. They were game sites of some kind. They're made of adobe style bricks. We have no idea how they have lasted in thismoist, foggy environment. We were told on our arrival in Lima that these ruins were discovered as a new condo or apartment development was being started. It's very impressive from the outside. We'll have to do some research. There is so much to find out about now!!!
The grand finale was a wonderful dinner on a pier that you can see in the first Lima post. It was fun, and another great meal. The meals and cooking here have been absolutely outstanding. We have never eaten better fish, prepared so well. OUTSTANDING!!!!!
We leave our hotel at 6:30 Lima time - 4:30 Del Mar time, and we should get home around 10:30 - 11:00!!
See you soon!!!
Adios!!!
