Lima [Perú]

A long downhill from the Andes mountains finds me on the coast again.  It's good to be in thick, sweet, sea-level oxygen. I can breathe deeply and without problem.

I roll into Lima in the morning and make it to the Plaza de Armas (the name for the central square on all Peruvian cities).  I take some time to view the royal palace and national cathedral (and eat two amazing home-made ice creams).

As I'm getting ready to roll out of town, someone stops me.  We begin to talk and he invites me to watch the fútbol match at his house.  Before you know it, we are eating and watching the game.  That evening I play in a local fútbol match and dance my way into a neighbor's birthday party... Life is good!
