After two crazy weeks of training for my new job in New York City, I arrived in Lima, Peru last night around 4:00 AM, after a long delay in Miami (thanks, American Airlines). For my first month here, I treated myself to a penthouse apartment on the 17th floor of a modern building in the Miraflores (think Beverly Hills in South America) neighborhood of Lima.The apartment has spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean and has a private rooftop pool. While the apartment itself is small, it's ideal for one person. After work today, I strolled to the ocean where a private company was giving paragliding rides for a small sum of money. It looked safe enough until I was in the air over the ocean and too afraid to take photos - my arms were held tight around the instructor the entire time.
If today was any indicator, I'm going to have a blast in Peru! Tomorrow, I head for a return trip to Cuzco and Machu Picchu at 5:30 AM...can't wait. For more pictures, click here.

Welcome to Lima. :) Just wait until the clouds move out in a couple of months, you'll have a wonderful view if you stay in that penthouse.
