Lima, Perú-Day IX.

2-11-13 LIMA, PERÚ: We woke up early, still on jungle time, and after breakfast, went to the Miraflores district of Lima, on the Pacific coast. It’s an upscale area with deluxe hotels and lots of casinos. We walked from Parque Kennedy to the Lacomar mall through foggy breeze off the ocean. It was a breath of cool, fresh air on a hot day.

Judy shopped. The view was of the fog flowing upwards over conglomerate cliffs from the gravelly beach. The surf was just visible through the fog. We lunched at the Miraflores Park Hotel next to the shopping. There was a big funeral being covered by several TV stations nearby.

Our driver, Victor, picked us up at the hotel and took up to the Indian and Incan markets for more shopping and then back to the airport hotel where we hung out until our red-eye to EWR.
