    It's official. I will be invading Peru from Oct 13-21 and inflicting my terrible Spanish on the chicas of yet another Latin American country. Their 0nly hope is surrender... :)

    RT here. Count me in.

    I want to try out El Emporio -- that's a spa that I haven't yet visited, and I think it sounds pretty good in the Spanish forum. Maybe we can pick an afternoon that works for everyone -- it's easier to talk in a Banos Turcos than at a club.

    Of course, a trip to Scarlet is always in order, too.

    I'd like to meet both of you guys too. 0nly problem is... I'm a day creature and a very busy one at that. I use to go to El Emporio, but 0nly saturdays around 4:00pm or 5:00pm. If that is O.K. with you we could meet there, or meet in Miraflores an I'd drive us all there.

    Otherwise, I'd still like to meet with you any given day at around 7:00pm if 0nly for coffee and chat anywhere in Miraflores.

    So RBC, Yo Amo is coming, too? Great!

    It looks like I **may** have a situation. The civilian that I have been talking to called me yesterday and told me that she quit her job and is going to Mexico City to work in November, so she will have PLENTY OF TIME TO SPEND WITH ME IN LIMA. I tried to gently explain that I was looking forward to spending a couple of days with her, but I will be doing things alone (casinos, I said) or with my friends the rest of the time.

    She said, "No problem." When you are done with your friends, call me. I will come over." Just like every other Latina I have ever dealt with. God help me, how do I get into these messes?

    Well, there's still a month to go, so we will see what happens. If I have to be a real bad guy, I will. I have a new cell phone and new number, and she doesn't know where my apartment is, other than in Miraflores.

    But that's my problem. Let's start now -- El Emporio at 4:30 on Saturday, 14 October. Sign up here.

    Outing to Club Scarlet - TBA

    Private dinner - RT Gooch & Homo Lo Gato: We will tell you how it went afterwards.

    RBC100: You've been asking about Sonia (the restaurant).

    If we manage to meet to go to El Emporio on saturday, I will be able to show you the place so you can go on Sunday. It is in the way to El Emporio... more or less.

    Just bear in mind that peruvian seafood, especially cebiche, is for lunch. Never for dinner. Your stomach might disagree with cebiche for dinner.

    That's too bad, RBC. I was looking forward to seeing you again.

    Hopefully, ComputerGuy is still on. I spoke with HLG yesterday, and he's all set for Saturday.

    Anyone else?

    First - GREAT board. Culturally, it may be the best monger board I've yet to lurk upon.

    Some of you may know me from CR and DR boards, where I occasionally post. Have been to the DR about ten times, and to CR 3-4 times -- and today I booked my first ever Lima trip.

    Believe it or not, it was a 50th birthday gift from my wife of 28 years. No, she's doesn't KNOW I monger. It's kinda like the "don't ask don't tell" thing (from the Clinton years... minus the gays in the army part).

    Anyway - my spanish skills are pretty decent, and I get more adventurous with each trip. Bear with me if I pose specific questions in the coming months (after having RTFF, of course). Hope to hook up with a few of you when in town. Gracias!

    Hello 'mash. RT here.

    Welcome to PeruTops. And thanks for the compliments. Since you can read Spanish, you will find that the Spanish forums offer more information than you could use in three lifetimes.

    We try to help here in English, too, so ask away. Our price: You add to our knowledge base and let us know how your trip went.

    Deal! I hearby promise the mother of all trip reports upon my return. A very reasonable price, I might add.

    About the Spanish forum... unfortunately, I speak and hear Spanish MUCH better than I read it - but I'll do my best. Thanks for the welcome.

    Hello Fellow Mongerers!

    This is my first post on this site, but I have read many posts from others.

    I will be in Lima starting on Nov 14th, if any fellow hobbyists are around I would love to meet up and chew the fat.

    I will be traveling a bit while in Peru and Machu Picchu is first on my list. Arequipa/Colca Canyon is also on my list if I can tear myself away from the chicas! Does anyone have a reference on these tour agencies?:

    http://www.andeanodyssey.com/eoffers_peru01.htm

    I haven’t made hotel reservations yet. I may start at the Marriott. I will arrive after 12:00 midnight and I really appreciate a great hotel when on vacation. Does anyone know if the Hotel Antigua Miraflores is girl friendly? And the La Castellana?

    Thanks to all of you who wrote up a post here. I have learned much!

    Reemo :D

    Hello everyone. Just wanted to say thanks for all the great info I've gotten from the site. Just took my second to trip Lima and because of all the help from RT, Computer Guy, and everyone else it not 0nly blew away my first trip but I'm pretty sure it changed my life! In all seriousness though, I will definitely start posting my experiences and after all the great help from you guys, will do my humble best to contribute.

    ... 'til i leave this snow-covered, sub-zero, two-full-time-jobs-at-once (kids in college) rat race for a much anticipated week in Peru.

    My annual spring break (one of the jobs is teaching at a college) monger trip approaches.

    So if you see a middle-aged, slightly thick, viagra-charged, ever-grinning bald guy enjoing coffee on a sidewalk cafe between March 7th and 14th... stop by and introduce yourself to macmasher.

    Followup on the heels of macasher at ISG and here, I'll be heading to Lima and Cuzco March 8-18th. The wealth of information here and at ISG is staggering, and because of that, I plan on hittin' the ground running. So many chicas/cholitas/cusquenas, etc., so little time! Hope to see some of you bro's down there.
