This is a quickie. Flight out from Houston to Lima was a veritable cattle truck and two hours late. Not up to Continentals usual standards. Bed therefore was 2 am this morning. Walk'about in Lima on our own today. Wonderful seafood lunch in a cafe on the cliffs overlooking the Pacific. $20 per head incl. beers, coffee etc. The Peruvians know how to make expresso as well as the Italians do. Drinking alchohol and caffeine with gay abandon for the time being as they both become verboten at high altitudes.
Found out the hard way that 75% of the ATMs do not accept our card for some strange reason but we will survive using those that do. Tommorow at 6 am we get picked up for the flight to the rain forest. Do not anticipate any communications between now and when we get to Cuzco, about 4 days hence. We shall be too busy searching for forest monkeys.
This is a Spanish keyboard so do not be surprised at weird or absent punctuation.

Good to hear everything is going as planned. Hope you get to photograph some forest monkeys. Won the eBay auction for total price of $57.51 which includes the shipping. Adios for now! Jim M.
