Lima is very different to Quito. Was amazing to see how developed and Americanised the city is. The road from the airport to the city is lined with Las Vegas style casinos. As we did only have one day in the city we decided to take a city bus tour (such tourists). Was interesting to see the contrast between the the area in which we were staying (it`s called Miraflores) which was very developed, consumeresque and in some ways western like amd the opposite side of the town which was made up of shanty town housing, poverty and relitive underdevelopment.
That afternoon we had to say goodbye to Alex as he left to go back home. Was so sad to sat goodbye and left us with a spare place as we had been so used to travelling in a three. We do have a replacment Alex though which he left with us - a mini Harry Potter that is trying to travle the world.
Now there is just the two of us.
