August 10th
erica and i arrived at the house on sunday early in the morning and went straight into our beds for a long nap, since we were exhausted from waking up for a really ealry flight. once we had awoken we ate lunch and met everyone. in our group for this week there is only about 10 to 12 girls. six of us all sqeezed in one cab later in the day and went to downtown lima. we visted the museo de equsition and the plaza de armas. it was interesting learning about the spanish inqusition and the toture that was infliced upon many of the people back then. the main square was beautiful as well. we also saw a small art exhibt, got ice cream, and then walked around the downtown shopping district.
we had come home, ate dinner, and then all decided to go out and celebrate a fellow volunteer, clariza´s brthday. we headed to the ccoast, got extravagant desserts and then played in an aracde for a while. it was a lot of fun getting to know everyone and it was nice to finally settle in to what will be our new home for the next 3 weeks.
