Taking off
We took off as planned from Lyon last Saturday. The flight was short since we were only going to Madrid but things got more complicated when we wanted to board the plane for the second leg of the journey. For some reason, Air Iberia had done something wrong when checking us in to the first flight. In Madrid then next airline’s (LAN) employee told that she cannot let us into the plane as the travel agency who booked our trip didn’t complete the booking correctly. As a result we had to fight with employees of both companies to finally get into the plane on time.
After that, we tried to sleep most of the journey (especially since the on-board computer wouldn’t let us watch movies). Even though we were so tired, we didn’t sleep well. I guess it’s always the case in planes.
Netta had some problems with legs as they got stiff and had to stand up and walk many times.
Arrived to Lima airport at 6.30 am. Thanks to Netta’s search over the internet, we managed to choose a good taxi right away, and got to our hostel. Have to say that we were a bit nervous though as we had heard that you have to be very careful choosing the taxi and because the houses looked quite crap on the way from the airport. The hostel staff was very friendly, and the owner was especially helpful showing all the places we should visit in Lima, which bus to take, etc. Since it’s early morning, we take a nap and head outside.
