The “rush” was over but the activity did not produce a full rest only a different mode but it did provide a break from the pressure. And since this as the last full day for Mark and Rachel it was necessary for them to get a view of the city, its food and its shopping extremes.
What better place than to begin the day with lunch a “Rustica”. It is a quaint but large place where they serve buffet style with Peruvian food. Ceviche of three types; potatoes with their special sauce; fried blood - but no one with us would touch it; Lomo Saltado; “purple corn drink” and time nor space permit the listing of it all (only because I can’t remember all the different dishes).
Then over to the Inca Mall for some tourist treasures. And who could go to Lima without venturing to Polvos Azules (Blue Dust). It is one small cubical after another of all kinds of clothing, gadgets, records, tapes, videos and anything you desire (almost). And if you are not satisfied, as Rachel wasn’t then off to a typical style US Mall! And thank goodness to be able to gt a Café Vanilla Frap from Starbucks.
We finally returned to our apartment and wrapped up all financial transactions, records, etc. and then watched “Invictus” before retiring for the night. Honestly, I retired Wednesday morning after completing preparation for teaching on Wednesday evening.
So, now it is on to new adventures with Jesus for the next week.
God bless and thanks for your prayers,
Dr D with Mark and Rachel
