Lima (11,13,16 November 2005)

John's birthday was on the 11th of November and we invited some friends to come over to celebrate with family. We ate pizza (there was a lot) and then had the most excellent cake adorned with ?? candles (Lorena thought it was a big job to use all those candles). Here from left to right are Alberto, Tatiana, Lorena, John, Carmen and Teresa.

The cake was made of layers of chocolate cake and "lucuma" cream. Lucuma is a Peruvian fruit, and it is John's favorite. Hmmmmm!!!


On Sunday 13th of November we had a family lunch together at Pardo's Chicken in Larcomar (Miraflores). Here from left to right are John, Lorena, Alberto, Carmen and Saul.



John was planning to return home to Australia to see his family so we decided to visit the Indian markets in Miraflores to buy some Christmas presents. Here we are on 16th of November looking at artesanias (handcrafts) - we bought a present for Bruce at this store.
