We had a nice relaxing morning before heading off to the centre of Lima to look around the old historic part of the city.

Surya and Tom wanted to look for a camera so they went off looking around the shops whilst me and Mel went around the city. 

The buildings around here are beautiful.  Lovely old colonial buildings and historic churches.  I could have spent hours and hours just walking around, but unfortunately not enough time to do it.

Surya managed to get herself a new camera which she was really pleased about and so was I.  I just hope she can get the money back on her insurance for her old one.

Later that afternoon, we walked back towards our hostel and sorted out our bus tickets for tomorrow and took in some of the markets and shops.  This place is crazy.  One of the markets had about 25 isles, just for sports shoes.  I have never seen anything like it.  It was like Eastville market but about 10 times bigger and selling all the same crap.

Didn't do much else that evening apart form cook again and have a few drinks in the hostel.  It's such a shame that I couldn't stay longer, but time is ticking and I have the Galapagos to come!!!!
