Bienvenidos from Peru. It’s been a long two days. Our flight to Peru left from Miami at about 6 pm on Wednesday. That doesn’t sound too bad until you consider there are no direct flights from Kansas City to Miami. That means we had to leave our house at 3:30 am yesterday to catch a 6 am flight to Atlanta which used to be our most hated airport. However, once you visit it a few hundred times it’s not so bad. It’s not great, but it’s not too bad. Two hour layover there (no airport running necessary), then on to Miami. We were not impressed with the Miami airport at all. They have these great interactive, touch screen airport maps, but I don’t know why because the supposed walkway from terminal H doesn’t exist. Why do they tell us that there is an Au Bonn Panne in terminal D & F if we can’t get there? I mean really! Why would they do that to us? We wanted to get this salad that we had in Philadelphia that had bree cheese, walnuts, cranberries, apples, chicken and maple vinaigrette. Maple Vinaigrette! So delicious! We settled for an overpriced, lackluster chicken sandwich, and that’s being generous in the rating. On a positive note, Delta let us check our bags all the way from KC to Lima and didn’t charge us a baggage fee! Do you hear that US Airways? I didn’t write that letter yet from my trip to Croatia, but I’m still planning on it. US Airways will be refunding that baggage fee they made us pay, and they may even throw in a pair of those flight around the world tickets.
We sat in the exit row for the first time ever. All that leg room was glorious! I could stretch my legs out all the way and not kick the seat in front of me. It was so nice. Too bad it was on a 5 hour flight instead of a 16 hour flight.
Did you know Peru is in the same time zone as Kansas? So we didn’t get to Peru until 10 o’clock last night. It was close to midnight when we got to the hotel.
Today we had a city tour of Lima and then a flight to Cuzco. I’m tired more about that later. Buenas noches from Peru.
Love,
