Leaving Lima Tomorrow

Monday March 23rd

Up at 7 with coffee on the balcony. We will miss the view which we are drawn to for hours at a time. Mesmerizing to scan these many miles from 300' above the beach. The usual hustle and bustle of Limoen's getting their work outs in and heading to work. Got outta the condo at 8 sharp and back to Larcomar for breakfast at Mangos on the cliff. Great food, good service, better view. Lolligagged over breakfast and stopped at the Marriott for directions to the Avianca office here in Miraflores.

Avianca is the only airline I am aware of that won't assign seats until 24 hours prior to departure. A real pain in the ass. Another 2 mile walk and a 20 minute wait to see an agent rectified the situation. If you have a choice between Avianca and Copa or Aeromexico don't think twice, 86 Avianca!

Back at noon to pack and prepare to return to Chicago where it snowed 2-4 inches this morning. I yi yi...enjoyed the heat wave on the Malecon where it was 80 today. 
Made a last minute decision to eat at La Mar again about 430. Ceviche Mixto for 2, then Grilled Lobster for yours truly and Garlic Butter Shrimp for Irene. You just can't find a better place to enjoy fine dining at crazy low prices!

We packed and then chilled on the balcony until 10 PM.
