Gabe´s B-day

Well, it has been a very eventful few days. I got the uniforms - after more waiting and a few tears we are all set. I took pictures and will try to post them soon. We arrived in Lima last night for an appointment we have this morning with immigration. Gabe's b-day was yesterday. We can't believe he's 12!!!!! He want to have pollo a la brassa in Lima, but now he says the chicken is better in Arequipa. Such a conesseur. He got some neat gift's "imported" from the States and we also managed to find him a TinTin book, in English, at a book store in Arequipa. He was very happy. Tonight we will conclude the celebration by going to a water/fountain park here in Lima and finding him a cake.
We hope to pick up our resident visas and our carnets today, and also begin the process for the kids' carnets. But, this is Peru, nothing is simple so we shall see how it goes. I have to go out and search of a bakery or corner store to get some breakfast.

I can't believe your getting your visas and carnets already! Peru is a little more progressive than Bolivia :) It took us almost 3 months to get our visas and we just got our carnets 2 weeks ago, 6 months later! Enjoy Lima.
