flickering light

This time it is the light above my head and not the screen, I know I know I am full of excuses! I am also full of water, I had an afternoon of surfing when I was meant to be packing and organising the trip which I am going on tomorrow opps!

I got up for 6am surfing this morning and waited and waited for Manuel only to discover later this afternoon that none of my messages got through to him as I had run out of credit! At least that explains the spanish message that kept flashing on the mobile´s screen. So after forty minutes looking like a wally this morning whilst people jogged past me and I tried to make gestures as if I was stretching in preperation for sport to feel less conspicous, I headed home and off to work. My last day at the Huaca which is a shame I have really enjoyed my time there. After work it was lunch and then down to meet Robert my alternative surfing teacher. The only problem with Robert is that he speaks no English at all so there we were floating in the middle of the ocean both frantically waving our hands about as he tried to explain various techniques to me.

I havent written for a few days what updates can I bring you? Well yesterday was spent with Chris, a friend from University days, who just happened to be passing through lima on his way home after 6 months on the road. We went out on Wednesday evening and then on Thursday he came to visit me at work. I tried to give him an interesting and in depth tour but you will have to ask him how I did. After that we grabbed some lunch eating far too much cheese and ham in the park. Then it was down to the beach to show him where I have spent alot of my time, we got there just in time for sunset. After a long week we both decided a quiet night would be nice so we stayed at the apartment and watched a bit of tv.

Tonight the plan is party party before Chris has to leave for the airport at 3.30am!! So we shall start early. The group should be big this evening as all of the surfer guys are coming to collect me at 8pm and promise that they can not only surf but also bust some mean groves!!!

Tomorrow I head up north so I may not write for a few days I have a busy time ahead and am looking forward to the long bus journey to catch some much needed shut eye.

well sorry for the borring nature of this entry as I said a combination of the flashing light and the water. Hope all is well with everyone love you all xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
