Lima was the first stop on this trip. Arrived late there in the evening. The next day did a city tour then headed for the airport to go to Arequipa.
Lima is a city of 11 million people. It is very clean. I did not realize that it is foggy 9 months of the year and the ocean was always cold. Only here for a few hours then off to the mountains. The food here is amazing. The old downtown is half empty in most of the buildings. Apparently no one is interested in living there. After 8pm it becomes a ghost town. I would have liked to seen that. I mean the old town is beautiful and imagining it empty at night I found rather sad. Could have spent more time here but the mountains were calling. I will add more pictures after the trip.
