Lima At Last! And It's Nicer Than I Thought.

I have to write this down before I forget.  I'M still in the airport and it's already bizarre.  On the bus was a woman from New York City who literally talked from Rohnert Park to the airport. "If he frigging doesn't own the car, he shouldn't frigging SIT in the car."  and  "Tony Soprano is too fat!  I like that guy, D'Onofrio.  He's really cute and Italian.  I'm Italian and Irish and Armenian."  What a trip!  She was offering white wine to everyone who got on the bus and, since no one would take it, she decided she would give it to soldiers returning home when she got to the airport.
So, I arrived at the airport where my bag was run through the scanner three times because of my water filter!  Finally a young man from Santa Rosa (Yes - Santa Rosa) unpacked my bag and found the guilty object!  It turns out that he will soon be transferred to the Sonoma County Airport which made him very happy.  No commute.  So, all ended well. . .
I still have several Airports to go through, so who knows what lies ahead.
11:30 p.m.
Okay, I got here (that would be LA) before nine, called home and got in line.  I have never seen so much luggage ahead of me.  Totally insane.  I think they had the rest of their family in those suitcases!  lThe line took over two hours but I met a very nice family from Panama so all was not lost.
P.S.  It's not a good idea to bring a water filtration bottle in your carry on - It really confuses airport security.  Onward!

Okay!  So, I made it to Lima and, after a grueling day and a half of airports and planes, I'M HERE!  I walked to the ocean and had some wine and food and watched families walking and children playing and surfers surfing while the sun set.  It was great!  On the way home, I met two young German tourists who were asking a security guard for directions.  It just made sense that they were looking for the place where I am staying and sure enough!  So I led them to Kusillus (which means monkey in Quetcha) and it is okay, clean and safe, especially for the price!

Tomorrow I explore Lima!
