First full day in Lima. What a beautiful city. Loads of lovely architecture, parks, tree lined streets and interesting side streets. 

The weather was gorgeous. 26c and sunny. 

The bridge of sighs. Apparently you’re supposed to make a wish and hold your breath as you cross the bridge to make the wish come true. 

Paddling in the Pacific Ocean. A must. 

Loads of street art. This one and the next is by a local artist called Jade Rivera

Free birthday croissant for the girl’s birthday. 

Full of raspberry purée. 

Delicious coffee and cake at the same cafe. 

A glass of wine to celebrate. 

Freshly grilled local vegetables as a starter at a Peruvian restaurant. 

I had a cat that decided I was better for knowing. 

A Peruvian dish. 

Another Peruvian dish. Both were so tasty. 

Sunset over the Pacific Ocean. 

By the way, we found Paddington!
