A Day in Lima, Peru–Monday, May 8, 2017

Never say never. How many times have we heard those words? Today was a day filled with those words. From the awesome Lima city guide we had to the unbelievable meal we eat to the Pisco Sours that literally had us staggering back to ur hotel, it was a day of superlatives. Lima, you are on our must visit again list. Our stated in a more general way, Peru, we will be back again.     I realize there is not much in the way of intrigue whatever it might be in this photo. Pay no attention to the total babe in the photo, it is all about the yellow glass of liquid in the foreground. The sign said passion fruit juice. It was more than enough to have me pour a glass full of it. Nothing ventured, nothing discovered to be worthless is my motto.

One of the great things about travel is you get to see lots of pretty women, speaking from a man’s point of view that is. Look at this awesome girl I saw on an escalator at the Houston airport.

Linda has informed me that I must do a test post before we leave tomorrow morning for Peru. This is my written test. This my photo post. Good Bob. Now that requirement is out of the way I will say that posts may be very spotty over the next three weeks as at times we will be limited internet, very limited internet or no internet. There are also times when there isn’t going to be much in the way of electricity. It is going to be a fun trip. Next stop, Lima, Peru. And to copy from Lowell Thomas, So Long Until Tomorrow.
