My first walk around town, I came across a flash mob……. check out the little Peruvian – he totally steals the show with his little solo near the end !

The local police were  non to happy about this……… and neither was I when I found out that they were actually from a church in Florida, here on a “mission”.  When I asked what their “mission” entailed (expecting perhaps something like working with street kids or the elderly) I was proudly informed that they were doing street ministering (????)

Well at least the little fella is definitely Peruvian and not part of the “mob”….. it was worth stopping to see him.

Slight detour on my way to Africa.  Going to court in Canada was an uncertainty up until 1 week before, which made planning a bit tricky.  The Round Square International Service project in Peru needed a female teacher due to a late drop out.  I was interested if I was going to be in North America, but could not confirm. There was a good chance someone else would become available before my plans were finalised.   It all fell into place at the nth hour, so here I am in Lima.
