Uneventful chill out in Lima after all the hiking, huffing and puffing of the past few days. Went to Barranco, the bohemian quarter of Lima; with its crumbling old mansions set amidst dusty grounds, it reminded me of Sahib, Bibi aur Ghulam and Calcutta’s old havelis… 
Also (on the recommendation of my hostal owner), went last-minute souvenir hunting in the ‘burbs and stumbled upon a Bajaj sales and service showroom! There certainly seem to be a number of ‘made-in-India’ products here in Lima – Rahul Bajaj’s polluting machines, Hero Hondas and even Bajaj Pulsars!
Off to Iquitos and a three-day Amazon adventure tomorrow – the last leg of my journey before I head back to Santiago – and Sydney. Another early morning flight tomorrow – this one’s at 0545, groan!
