We arrived in Lima on Friday night. It was a surprise to us that we actually made it past Atlanta. We started out with a 50 minute layover in Atlanta when we got the tickets but found when we got to the airport that new flight schedules made it more like 35 minutes. Then there was a mechanical problem that delayed our takeoff from Dallas. We arrived in Atlanta with 15 minutes to get us (and our bags!) to the next gate. While we waited to get off the plane I looked out the window and saw a fellow holding a piece of paper and pulling our bags off the plane. Then, when we got into the terminal we found we were in the middle of terminal B and the next flight was at a gate at the far end of terminal E, the last one in the airport. We figured there was no hope so we didn't run but we sure hurried and arrived at the gate 5 minutes late, only to find that they had held up the plane for us! We arrived in Lima--along with all our bags--only a few minutes after the scheduled time. Thanks, Delta!
We got to the CILTA house where we are staying sometime after 1 AM and hauled our bags up to the 3rd floor. Kristine tried to help but a 50 pound bag was a bit much for her so I took over at the first landing.
Our apartment is great. Pictures follow.
We both have our own desk in the living room.
We have a roomy kitchen.
And we already have pictures of some of our favorite people on the fridge!
There is an interesting view of the apartments across the street.
And of the street outside our front window.
