Lima!

We made it back to Lima! I think we are all finished with our buses now! 

We are staying in a really nice area in Miraflores and after we checked into our room we made sure to check in for our flight to Iquitos in the morning. 

From there we went to the Parque del Agua, which is this amazing park that has about 15 different large fountains! We had time to walk around for a bit before the sun went down, but that is when everything started to look amazing.  All of the fountains had a different set of lights under them to illuminate the water with different colors.  BUT - the best part was their impressive water show.  Now, the Belagio in Vegas has nothing on this place.  Theirs was synced to music, with lasers, and videos that they projected onto the water.  It was amazing.  They had flowers that would bloom and open, hummingbirds that looked as if they were flying, and different dances from the Peruvian culture.  Absolutely amazing. 

We then went to eat at Norkys - a chain that Scott Flom recommended we try.  It was pretty good, and worth a try because we keep seeing them all over Lima! 

Off to the Amazon tomorrow!

Ciao!
