We slept in, had prayer, showered, and went to breakfast.  We talked with Ray and his wife, Lisa Mijares.  We set at the table with John from Chicago.  His daughter and her family are members of the church.  I paid $40 for a late check-out and Debbie and I went with Ray and Lisa Mijares to the Huaca Pullana site museum, showing a timeline of Ancient Pure Civilizations.  Debbie and I took an Uber to Museum Larco.  We had a guided tour; it features the finest gold and silver collection from Ancient Peru.  After the tour, we ate lunch at the museum.  We took an Uber back to the Ibis Hotel.  There was a large group going to the Lima Airport.  It was after midnight before we took off to Atlanta.
