We have a nice hotel in the Mira Flores district of Lima. Yesterday was mostly devoted to resting after a fun night sitting up in an airport lobby in Guayaquil. We did manage to get out and buy a new suitcase for Linda. Her Coleman rolling duffle self destructed after only couple of flights, multiple tears and a major seam opening up. We had it wrapped in plastic for our last flight, but it was done fer'.  The Coleman name doesn't mean diddly squat, don't ever buy one.
Mirabus Lima City Tour

Today we took a bus tour of the city and I snapped a bunch of pics from the upper deck. It does not make for great photography, but no doubt the pictures will help our failing memories to actually recall what we have seen. Lima is a huge city of ten million, one third the population of Peru.
One of many parks an plazas in the city

We had dinner at a nice little sidewalk cafe not far from our hotel. Pisco sours are the national Peruvian drink so we celebrated our last night here with two. Tomorrow morning it is back to the airport for the flight to Buenos Aires. Traffic is horrid in Lima and the trip to the airport takes about an hour.
