On any given Sunday in the U.S. we would likely wake up a little late, grab a coffee, take a walk, perhaps run a few errands and make sure we are somewhere in front of numerous televisions blasting American football by 1pm ET. That is sort of what Greg and I did in Lima on Sunday. With the late night the night before, we figured it would be in good health to get some extra shut-eye, so we skipped all the pre-game running around and woke up late and went straight to watching football.
Once we were up and about we walked about 30 minutes to an American sports bar called The Corner. With dozens of TVs with every game on, it was exactly what we were looking for.
We set up shop upstairs where it was a little less crowded. Greg enjoyed a Niners victory while Matt sat in sorrow watching his Eagles lose at home...again.
We hung at the bar for about four hours and then decided to head back home. We took the Malecon, which is the scenic cliff side path that overlooks the ocean.
We grabbed a quick snack from the local fruit cart on the way back.
We arrived home to an empty apartment. Jeremy and Pam were out and about. Here's a shot of the beautiful floor to ceiling ocean view from Jeremy's place. Definitely going to miss that 180-degree beachfront view.
Once Jeremy and Pam got back, we all jumped in the car and headed to Makoto for some sushi. It's only about 10 minute drive from their place so it became a great go to spot for a simple and super tasty dinner. The Salmon sashimi was dynamite.
That literally was our whole day. Nothing exciting, which is what we were going for. Monday is a bit more of the same, except the TIS crew will dwindle to just one lonely sole. Greg flies out at noon, so it'll just be me (and Jeremy and Pam). I don't have anything fancy planned. Walk around, check out the beach, eat a few more delicious meals and then get ready to fly out Tuesday morning.
