Sitting in a cafe by the window late on Wednesday night watching the Peruvian world go by outside. On the other side of the park the shops are all lit up and many of them still open and will be as I walk back to my apartment. There's a beautiful church just across the way which is all lit up and looking quite impressive against the Peruvian night sky. Which reminds that I saw a Jehovah's witness church out in Villa Maria today, a bit out of place, but they must be doing good business. I'm also informed that the evangelicals are growing in influence and in some parts bigger than the RC church. Guess we can expect a visit from that old german sometime soon.
They are playing Xmas music in here and mostly from uk and us. Just can't get away from Jingle Bells.
Just had very sad news from home. Our neighbour Dollag, back home on Isle of Lewis has just passed away and will be buried tomorrow. She was a great person one of the best. She was so kind to our mother in the last few years of her life. I'm very sad not to be at the funeral. It feels wrong somehow.
Such a strange feeling being here in Peru and so far away. Can't help but feel a little sad.
