[DAY 1 - Saturday in Lima]

Went to JFK late night on Friday, and boarded on my Lan Chile flight for the red-eye straight to Lima. The flight was about 8 1/2 hours and pleasant. The Chilena stewardesses were major league hotties ... and served as a positive foreboding for my week in Peru. Ah ... to me, nothing beats a hot, young latina.


So, I slept on my flight into Lima and, considering that I had only carry-ons, my exit from the airport was rather easy. Customs was fast and easy. As I walked through the final security check point, I turned a left and then went out ... immediately hounded by taxi-cab offers. The taxis know that you came off an international flight and will try to stick you for $15-20 US into Miraflores. I bargained for $10 US ... although, you'll soon realize that most native Peruvians only pay about 15-20 NS (nuevo soles) for this. Mind you ... at this time, $1 US = 3.5 NS.

So, I took the morning cab ride down to my hotel ... the Marriott which is in Miraflores on the oceanside. The accomadations at the Marriott are supposed to be the best, and the front-desk speaks relatively fair English. Everything said and done ... if I could do it again, I wouldn't stay at the Marriott. It was about $100 per night (per internet special) and seemed a little too snooty for my tastes ... but to each is own.

Ah Lima! The weather was perfect ... and I took a stroll down the ocean side and Larco Mar (the touristy shopping-mall on the coast across the street from the Marriott), and then I strolled East down Ave. Pardo to Parque Kennedy. Not much action could be found in Pizza Alley (on the North side of the park) this late morning, so I grabbed a quick chicken sandwich and coke for about 5 NS, and then grabbed a cab for my first adventure --> Las Curcadas!

[Las Cucardas]
The cab-ride was 10 NS ... and considering the Las Cucardas was in a bad neighborhood (Callao), I paided him 10 NS more to wait for me and then drive me back to Miraflores. Once we got to Las Curcadas, I stepped up to the doorway and paid 15 NS for entry ... which also included time to hook up with a girl and a condom. As had been mentioned in the past, the set up is a rectangle of small-rooms ... almost each with a girl beckoning you in or just relaxing in the room. Feel free to peek in and take a girl for a ride if you're interested. The girls ranged from 3 to 9. I took a taller Morena who told me that she was 20 ... about 7 for her body and face. Price was 30 NS for the session ... about 15-20 minutes. Session included CBJ and the CFS with a couple different positions. Nothing mind-blowing ... and - ack! When I walked out, I noticed 2 totally hot babes in the rooms next to this girl. It just so happened that they were occupied when I had just gotten there, and now they were free. When you go to Las Cucardas, make sure that you wait around a bit ... something beautiful may be just 10 minutes away! Also, another recommendation would be to ask you taxi to wait for you AND to not go too late at night; a number of taxis may even refuse to go to Callao at night - in fear of being robbed at a stop-light.

[Mili from placeresdelperu.com]
Well, I headed back to my hotel room and needed round 2. Round 2 went to Mili from placeresdelperu.com (which has about 20 independent girls that you can call and their pictures without faces). I called her at 9-989-2963 (number from the website) and negotiated 100 NS for 1 hour with her at her place - in Miraflores about 7 blocks north of Parque Kennedy on Ave. Arequipa; she'll be able to tell you how to get there. I went through the gate of a house after they buzzed me in, the madam had me wait a minute, and then Mili showed up. About 5'2", lighter-skinned, lean-spinner type, 19 year old. Her face was about a 6, with a mole on the side. Well, for 100 NS (which she wanted upfront), we took an hour in the room ... CBJ and CFS. I banged her for almost the full hour and came in doggie position. Her attitude was decent, but nothing out of the world.

For the rest of the day, I hooked up with a girl from amigos.com and her friends for some dinner and partying. Ah ... Peruvians KNOW how to enjoy themselves. As my friend said ... "la vida en Lima es dura, y por esta razon necesitmos ir a las fiestas duramente tambien." When in Lima, it would be a great idea to make some friends and just enjoy the party scene, as well.

Play274. Thanks so much for the report. I just got back from Buenos Aires and am seriously considering Peru as my next trip. I look forward to the rest of your report.

Hey, no problem Xenono! You guys have all been so helpful and - when bored-dead at work, I've had enjoyed living vicariously through your posts! I'm going to add the rest of my trip in a little bit. Although I only touched to very surface of what can be found in Lima from my own experiences, I believe that you can do pretty well from the list of possible choices from the "Introduction" part of this trip report.

Thank you for your report. I have one question... Is the Marriott guest friendly?

Daniel - I apologize for the late response.

The Marriott is guest friendly (although you may need to check the girl in). You can even have a "call in" girl come to the Marriott, sign in downstairs, and make her way up to your room (although bringing her up on your own would likely be preferable). Often, when I would walk in with a girl, they would simply let me in without any fuss (and the staff is very gracious).

The Marriott is supposed to be "top notch" for Lima, and, as long as you have cash, the Marriott staff will treat you in a "top notch" manner, as well.
