Labor Day In Lima

Monday, May 1, 2017 was Labor Day in Peru. We went with some other missionary couples to tour a big, old cemetery that is like a labyrinth. Its called Presbitero Maestro.  It cost 7 Soles to enter and 10 more Soles if you were going to take pictures. One dollar is 1/3 of a Sole.  Sole is pronounced “Solay.”We took the train to the northwest side of Lima. It was an over cast day, not too hot. Lots of pictures coming!

 

 

Waiting to get on the train. We forgot to bring any casual shirts for Carter. He’s been running around all day in his white shirt. He got a phone call right when it was time to take the picture. He’s starting to be on the phone a lot more.

The train!

 

 

Carter was a whole head taller than the locals!

We found a cute girl who wanted to practice her English!

 

Look at the name I found!

 

War memorial right in the center where many war heroes are buried. It’s always easy to spot Carter in his red UofA hat!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Found a shirt for him that evening. Yep…. he’s on the phone again.
