Lima... oh Lima... how well we know Lima, after spending yet another day here. It was hot and polluted and overcrowed.... and beautiful.... now that we are staying like right near the Plaza de Armas, everything is colonial and awesome and we pretty much spent a lot of the day just watching life go bye. we also went to a museum of the Spanish Inquisition... complete with wax figures being tortured. it was pretty creepy, especially standing in the judgement room before the priests, assuming we would be accused of heresy... even though they were wax... We ate this crazy wierd fruit... its called grenadilla... its prickly and gives slivers on the outside and then is crazy hard to get into... then when you eat it, its basically like sucking snot off of seeds... mmm... we also were at the congress when some protesters starting marching and the policias were out in their riot gear... and so we ran away haha. but then a little while later there were more protestors right outside our hostel... and we took pictures. tomorrow we are flying to Quito, Ecuador. ciao Nathan y Kristy
