Tuesday 16 January

Alberto had a commitment early this morning, so Mary and I also got up early and started the day with the same walk that we had made last night.  The area was a bit busier than last night.  We were very proud of ourselves for having a second walk.

Between feedings we made a trip to Wong.  That is the big, nice grocery that is beside my Starbucks.  It is interesting as Mary says that the name comes from the Chinese/Peruvian family that founded the store.  Apparently it started with just a small bodega like all of the small stores one sees everywhere in Lima.  But it got the reputation for having really nice produce and meat and etc and was very successful and just continued to expand until it was a full size grocery.  It was then bought out.  But the next generation of the Wong family continues to run small stores.  Such as the beautiful cheese shop we .  

Mary's friend, came by to bring some papers to sign.



Tonight is Taco Tuesday ....busy night!
