Garden of Love – Lima, Peru
(email home, Lovely Lima in Peru – part 2 of ‘Best Trip Ever’ 20th April 2014)
Hi Everyone,
We’re in Lima, the capital city of Peru & it’s truly beautiful!!
The weather is much cooler which is a welcome relief, about 20-23 degrees.
Yesterday was very long as we left Hollywood for LAX at 3:30am, arranged for some luggage to be stored, then checked in, got breakfast ($20 for a juice & a sandwich, never again!), celebrity spotting (the Fonze, Henry Winkler), security screening & the plane ride to El Salvador!!!
And another plane to Lima, taxi negotiation, wrong hotel booked (don’t ask, it wasn’t us) & another taxi negotiation then all good, wine, shower & bed!!
Our room here is adorable and I’m pretty sure our beds & cupboard are hundreds of years old. Super comfy beds (Brooke’s asleep as I write this)!
Tonight we meet the gang we’ll be travelling with for the next two weeks & going out for dinner!!
As we’re being collected tomorrow at 4:00am I thought I’d catch up now! I still haven’t looked at the itinerary but figure it’s all good!! Surrender to the journey!!
Love you all xxxx

Hi Everyone!!
I’ve now been to Machu Picchu & believe me it was a tough one. But oh so much fun!!!
The last week is a bit of a blur however we travelled around with the best group of new friends, worked on a farm, ate local food, slept in -5C degrees in a tent, battled the altitude (more than 4000 metres), partied in a nightclub with our trekking friends, renamed myself Feyonce, stayed awake for 24 hours and have lived to tell the tale!!!!
Lots of photos to sort through when I get home 😉
Brooke & I are now in Rio & making the most of the warm weather & comfortable beds…. Look out tomorrow, we’re hitting the beach! Staying just up the road at Copacabana, woo hoo!!
Much Love xx

P.S. If you’re travelling to Peru, or anywhere with a group, I suggest and recommend G Adventures, they’re amazing!
