Day 4 - Lima

Started with the Amano Museum. It was a spectacular collection of pre Incan textiles (and some pottery). The works are in excellent condition because they were buried with their owners and thus didn't deteriorate Tiny embroideries and weavings, lacy weavings, resist dyed pieces and more. 

Then popsicles for lunch, but not just any popsicles. Mine was cappuccino with chocolate inside. Henry had mango with passion fruit inside.

Then, on to Huaca Pucllana, a pre-Incan pryramid and temple right in Lima. The mud bricks are laid vertically. Corpses were basically wrapped in textiles and entombed in a sort of sitting position. 

Our hostess from the B&B joined us for all of that. Even though she is from Lima, she'd never been to either. Fortunately, she didn't need our room right away so we could have a nap before moving to the group hotel.

Ceviche for dinner, and fish chicharrones. In Peru, that seems to be anything fried, not just pork rinds. We also tried a local beer that turned out to be green because it has seaweed in it. OK, but I prefer a regular amber ale.
