Surprisingly modern and quiet, a complete contrast to Peru. Beautiful, wide parks, where people sit and chat, play chess oblivious to the young couples who are clinched in passionate embraces everywhere you look! We climbed to the top of Fort Hidalgo A strange kind of military folly built into the side of the hill which gave a fantastic view of the city. We walked down to the closing markets which had the most fantastic jewelry for a few dollars. It was starting to get dark and we were on the edge of the safety zone so headed for dinner yummy seafood, Portuguese hamburger and wine 20USD! I got the shock of my life though as I didn’t realize that the toilets were unisex and freaked a bit when two burly men walked in and got on with their business!
And so to the sleep of the jetlagged!
