Chapter 9 - Perú Loving - Part 1 - Lima
(June 2014)
3 Months to go 

I honestly do not know where to start with this blog post about Perú!!!!!!! It was such an incredible trip!! I am going to try and not bore you all again so here goes :) 

Our first stop was in Lima to visit our beautiful friends Mr & Mrs Woodland!! We loved being able to hang out with our amazing friends for a few days :) They were such amazing hosts and we had so much fun!   

On our first day in Perú, we went to see the government palace, 

Plaza del Armas,

a Cathedral,

and lots of bones and skulls in the Catacombs :)

After a good amount of time sight seeing, we had all worked up a mahousive appetite and after Jr & Patty had been telling us amazing things about where we were going for lunch, we couldn’t wait!!! Guess what….they were not wrong!!!! La Bistecca was incredible.  It is a worldwide buffet restaurant and boy we were stuffed after that!!!! 
We then headed to a park called Parque De La Reserva – Circuito Mágico Del Agua. It was such a beautiful water park with loads of different fountains and even a native dance show projected ontp the wall of mist - and it was also so much fun!!!! 

Of course we couldn’t finish off the day without catching up on the Britain’s Got Talent Final in our Pjs haha!! 

The next day we headed to a beautiful part of the city called Miraflores where we had a lovely bike ride along the beach side :) even if it rained haha!  

All this exercise obviously made us very hungry, so here we come CHILI’s!! 

Once our bellies were full to the brim, we headed to catch a bus tour around Miraflores where Jr attacked Josh and I by pulling a branch back and then it whacked us in the face haha!!! Of course we couldn’t finish our trip without heading to another restaurant ;) Loving life!! We headed to a restaurant called Las Tinajas - Chicken & Grill where we had our first taste of Pollo a la Brasa…. delish!!! (Although I wasn't a fan of a Peruvian drink we tried there called Chichamorada - Made from Purple Sweetcorn) 

Thank you so much Jr & Patty, we had such an incredible time and cannot wait for more fun times together. 

Love you both x
