Lima: School as usual

School again today as usual, we learned about the Lima Culture which lived in this area from 100AD-650AD. In between classes I continued my search for peanut butter, but found that at the cheaper grocery store the PB was actually more expensive than the other store. S./16! Almost $6! I held off as usual.

After class we scurried for food and then took a cab to FAP to teach. I bought a delicious pastry of tres leches and phyllo from a street salesman for under $1 and then ate more of the bread I bought yesterday. Tomorrow I think I've talked Tyler into bringing his switchblade so that we can buy palta and eat that for lunch.

Our English class was very fun and we went over clothing for the students. After the bell rang all of them jumped us to take pictures in varying poses.

Next we went to our lecture on Peruvian emancipation where we learned more about San Martín and Simón Bolivar as well as Atahualpa and Tupac Amaru II who led an indigenous uprising against the Spaniards. Later girls from the school talked to us more about political freedom and our opinions.

Lessons Learned:

Peanut Butter is Mantiquilla de Maní in Spanish

You probably shouldn't just eat bread for lunch, I felt a bit queasy after

Toilet paper may have been my best purchase yet, everyone keeps borrowing it from me.

Finished! Salad, Pesto & Pasta, Fish and Soup, just another meal with the Sotos
