Hola amigos! Josh and I are currently in Peru (Lima to be exact) and are absolutely thrilled to finally have made it here. It’s a trip we’ve been talking about for several years but was always pushed aside for whatever reason, until now.
We had a half day city tour today in Lima, then we walked around on our own for a few hours in the afternoon. We’re flying to Arequipa tomorrow in the morning. Our itinerary is packed with lots of stuff, and we’re super excited for everything. After Arequipa and Colca Canyon, we’re flying to Puno and taking a cruise on Lake Titicaca. Then we’re off to the Sacred Valley, Cuzco, and, of course, Machu Picchu.
Food-wise we’ve had the best ceviche ever at a restaurant in Miraflores called Alfresco, which we’ll be writing about when we get back. We also just had a nice dinner at a beautiful restaurant on a pier that extends into the Pacific Ocean, called La Rosa Nautica. Aside from a little green visitor on one of our dishes, the food was excellent, and the ambiance was really nice.
We’ll be away for the next 2 weeks but if we have internet access, we hope to check in once in a while! Otherwise, we’ll definitely update as soon as we get home.
Hope you are having an amazing time!! I miss you!
