Tom and I have begun our adventure!

We have arrived in Peru!
1) abandon all you think you know about conventional traffic laws/patterns.  The meaning behind the color of a light changes when you want it to and lanes are optional.  Speed bumps also show up as frequently as New York City potholes.
2) Ugh.... TGIF, Chili's, Papa John's, KFC, and that's just the beginning of the list of American chains down here... Things to avoid.


We successfully managed to check no luggage and only had carry-ons for the trip which makes life easier.  Also, cutting off almost a foot and a half of hair really allowed to fit my liquids in that silly quart bag.  A few weeks ago and there's no way the amount of conditioner my hair required would have fit!!  It's also quite nice (and somewhat odd) to only change one time zone on a trip!!
We're in Lima, in the Miraflores district, so we're just going to look at flowers all day tomorrow.... :)
No set plans tomorrow, just going to explore (and eat!).
Also, I have promised that I will neither write embarrassing things nor take embarrassing photos of my father for this blog (that will be for a separate blog I didn't make any promises about!).
Also... All spelling and rules of grammar are optional for this blog:)
