A hectic day today. Tomorrow we are heading out at the crack of dawn to hike up to Rupac which is the site of (I believe) the best preserved Incan ruins in Peru. I decided to head over to Homemade for breakfast and to work for a bit but their WiFi wasn’t up to the task, plus breakfast was underwhelming… On my way over to the work space I recalled that two of my very few articles of clothing had been ruined the night before so I swung through Larcomar to look for replacements. Despite just being a mall, this is a pretty cool place. It’s built down into the cliffs of Lima overlooking the ocean with a park on top. I quickly got annoyed with shopping, though, so I gave up and headed to the office. I worked for a while and then broke for lunch at Trattoria Don Vito. This is kind of a cute place. It had decently good food but it tries to be way classier of a joint than it actually is. I headed back to work but got a wee bit distracted by a happy hour invitation. So, ended up at this Irish pub, Houlihan’s which was a surprisingly decent representation of an Irish Pub. In Lima there is (for some reason) this place called “Calle de Pizzas” or Pizza Street which is a little pedestrian block full of places that sell, yes pizza, but also a weird combination of Peruvian cuisine. Some other folks were having pizza there so we turned up for that. And then naturally we had to have an after dinner drink at The Old Pub, an English themed place on that same street. All in all it’s exactly what you want before an early morning and a tough hike.
