Day 13: Lima, Peru

We were in transit most of the day, from Cuenca, Ecuador to Lima, Peru. We woke up of course to the rooster at 7 am and attempted to rest some more. That proved to be challenging with the noises all around. We had decided before we left for the trip to fly from Cuenca to Lima. The bus ride would have been over 30 hours, so I think we made the right decision. We had to haggle with the taxi guy because they were trying to rip us off at the airport in Lima, but with my wonderful skills of haggling we got the right price to get to our hostel.

The hostel we are staying at is really nice. It is kind of on a noisy street, but the hot water and super comfortable bunkbeds make up for it. The owner of the hostel is turing 27 so there was a party on the rooftop terrace where their bar is. We checked it out but retired early. All we could think about was waffles, fruit, and coffee for breakfast. We are on to Huacachina tomorrow.
