Left Panama City for Peru for more Vacation<\/em>. Scored an upgrade from the very back row of economy to business class, made the short flight that much better. Had a late bite to eat at Siete<\/a>. Went for a little walk along the waterfront Malec\u00f3n de Miraflores<\/a>. The views were great! This was about the last time my tour guide was enjoyable to be around.
Plan was to live in Lima, so to rent a condo & live in Lima I had to go to a government office for a permission document. The tour guide<\/em> sent me to the wrong place, twice, (she really was totally useless)<\/em>, the second place the line was blocks long (see below)<\/em>. Then she suggested I use her friend a Lima lawyer<\/a> to give a bribe to a Lima government official. $100 bucks and the lawyer “karelyne de lima<\/em>” gave me the needed piece of paper. So if you want to get something done in Lima get a lawyer to pass a bribe on for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I spent a couple nights in a hotel then had an awesome vrbo place on the Malecon right by the Miraflores Skate Park. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
