First day with Amigos de los animales

The following has been edited by me (Caleb), and is composed of emails from Liz.

Today was our first day at Amigos [de los animales], we took a crazy bus with the Amigos person, and saw a lot of stray dogs and poor parts of the city. Now we appreciate why Mira Flores [where our hostel is located] is considered a tourist part of Lima. Also a lot more stray dogs, although they looked in better condition than I expected. The people did as well. We also saw the desert. I took a lot of pictures at the shelter, but not of the city for fear of being seen as rude.

Back in Mira Flores we found a stray dog in the park across from the hostel, and bought him some dog cookies but the hostel would not let us keep him : (

I meant to write more, but it is very late now and I am very tired. Went for a run today, Janet came as well.

Buenos noches
