Well, here is the good times Matthias slept again. I was on a Saturday night on the road again. A bit of music listening, a two schlappern beer. Had the night not much money. To be precise: a fifty bill brine and a little pocket change. It was then just a beer and I had to pay 8 soles. I gave the boor behind the counter of the fifties and got back two twenties and two soles. I still have one left as a tip, I'll blow the whistle. Before loading into taking a guy like me wanted a taxi. Ten soles to the hotel! I'm the guy NEN bird and am shown around the corner. The negotiations with the next taxi driver returned 5 Soles. So get back home. Outside the hotel, I junk around in my pockets. This small change results after rough estimate less than 5 soles. So one twenties. The taxi driver is not as stupid as me! The looks closely at the bill. He gives it back to me and says that this is a fake. Oh great! I'll give him another. The result is the same! I search again in plate and get money, thank God, but for 5 bucks together.
The next morning I switched to the reception 100 Soles. With hundreds of you here need not even trying to pay for a taxi. I got out and twenties. Did then the times compared with my two finds. At first glance, were actually ok. But somehow the paper was different, or in other words, some were made of cheap paper, the others were bills.
I've tried in the evening at the same point these things go back to be. With the first it seemed to work. As to the second round it will still wanted to pay, the Servierheini noticed that. He came back with the bill. I told him that I just received this bill on the previous evening in this establishment. That is totally impossible! He then got the guy in from the cash register. And anyway, every employee here would agree that it be completely impossible, that I have received counterfeit money. I then just pay the second amount Fuffi with. I promptly got my twenties again another wrong. Now it was alleged that I would have paid just the other with that same amount. Agreed, too, must admit not the same, right? I wondered whether this was probably the only twenties were in the till. The answer was a stupid face. How does he know so exactly, that this is just been my money. No answer. For that I was now of all employees, including the two, eingermassen Finster looking creatures from beyond the front door, surrounded. The situation had become so designed something to my disadvantage. Especially since I had a very reliable impression that something else in "glib" is understood as a loose tongue. I'm so taken back and the other false twenties. All in all, not really nice, on the other hand, it is still to get over. 40 soles are not quite 10 €. There's also another consolation still, the fellow who is arriving here on Saturday, got himself a fake $ 20 bill already foist. This is considerably more than 10 €! Anyway, I'll be careful in the future.

In fact, I'm in the last two weeks, a little bit of writing. One can even say: not at all. There were a couple of days in the last events of which I now want to tell some. They follow in the near future!
I'll try again. For about 6 weeks I am going to lose some weight again. There are quite successful. I had, if I may believe my pay scale in Berlin, made already about 8 pounds. In my hotel room there is a balance and I can only recommend that all want to lose weight urgently: flying in the vicinity of the equator! Or better yet, right there. If the balance here, I think there are already more than 12 pounds! This can also explain physically: Although on Earth throughout the gravity approximately equal, but at the equator is in contrast to the poles (no, not now, the neighbors of the Germans but the upper and lower ends of the earth, if any ball has ends should. Well, you know what I mean), so at the equator, the centrifugal force due to Earth rotation later. Since centrifugal force and gravity are facing each other, so a higher centrifugal force causes a lower weight. But if that makes much of the same? Although, in large masses, the impact is also greater
. But could simply be because the scale something "after".
Well, at 9:00 clock is not really, but I feel Sun 've Finally slept for a very long day, only 4 hours. But what needs to be that way. So look and see how the breakfast here. Goes like this. But I do not eat that much anyway. WHILE I see the morning pull out of the window, the first "march blocks" towards the Town Hall. So I am armed with the camera off and flows well. Around the Central Park and the town hall is quite full. Meanwhile, I've also found out what is taking place. The annual Parade of Schools of Miraflores. Although I do not know what's the occasion to do so. The National Day and Independence Day are only in 2 weeks. But maybe it has something to do even that. Anyway, there are plenty of flag-waving, marching, "Viva Peru," and other national heroes stuff. The schools are then almost all in step, or at least the attempt of such a past. The whole is also assessed by a jury. In part, see the march of tests rather silly.
Then I am again back to the hotel. Still had to report to my post yesterday and today. It was not until I was still a little annoyed the GPS module. Somehow it did not succeed me to read the data from the thing to provide the photos with geographic data. So I rumgesucht. I then found on the manufacturer's website to update your software. This I have installed. But also not helped. However, I had found out a little later that it helps immensely if you turn the thing! As soon as it was on, could read the data. Argentina just scored an own goal. I sync the pictures with the log data from the GPS receiver. The software produced but somehow crap. After tagging the images are the reception places somewhere in Nirvana hiss Africa and America. One area in which I was never guaranteed. Not even with the plane. I test it again. It gets worse! So the software back down. Luckily found another source for the old software. Argentina has some problems. With the new software, it is then. All photos contained properly, the information on the recording location. So even after flickr upload (you can see the way: http://www.flickr.com/photos/mkihr/ ). Brazil has just scored another goal. Does not look as if Argentina is still South American champions. But I'm almost done with my stuff. 'll Still go watch the game over and then eat something. 'm Already pretty broad. When I go to bed early today, but maybe tomorrow morning I'm already behind me, the time change.
I am again in Lima. The first surprise was it on the flight. I was looking forward to the lousy weather in Berlin and in anticipation of the "winter" Lima already on the stopover in Bonaire. An hour Caribbean sun. But then I made a spanner in the KLM. The no longer fly the MD11 but now with a Boeing 777 The course provides the non-stop. Therefore it depends on the plane for 12 hours. I was pretty knocked out after the flight already. About 18.00 clock I arrived at the hotel. The room is not bad. 2 room suite with a Jacuzzi. Internet get updated very often from the air for free.
Upon arrival at the hotel I'll be going once. Since this time the Hotel Las Americas is another of the chain, it is in a slightly different area of Miraflores. But is not really a problem. Which are all within about 2 miles. Somehow I drove my instinct out of the hotel on the road in the right direction. After 3 minutes I was Park Central.
I've only once a few bottles of water and a few tomatoes purchased. Then back to the hotel. The hot tub to try to erhohlen me a bit. I'm about 21.00 clock, then release. In "The Old Pub" live in Callas de las Pizzas get updated very often music on Saturdays. I still remember the last time. When I arrive, it is not really complete. Music still comes from the can. The right is only so go to 11th The music of the tin can to make you a little bit of fear, what is yet to come. The German music also have this: Wolfgang Petry! As if this were not bad enough, comes shortly after even Blue system. I take my scare but do not worry. I remember that the band is really good and makes the right music. I will not be disappointed. A long time ago that I hand made such titles as "Smoke on the Water", was "Born to be Wild" or "Bohemian Rhapsody" is one. And this is just a small sample of what that played over the next 3.5 hours. Before it started, I almost fell to the eyes. I finally was already more than 24 hours on the road. But now it went up again. When the music came to an end, I wanted to open it even in the bed. Since then I talked to a couple of Peruvians who have sat all night in my neighborhood. They asked me if I am alone here and why this is so. I told you that I've just arrived in Lima. She felt she could not leave me alone. Although I was pretty bombed, I'm still with them then that is also the "Mama Batata" moved on. It was, as always, full of hell. A long line outside the door. I've tried on the side window. When that did. This time, the Security Service but beware. We had to wait about 15 minutes, we were drinne. The party went on as usual here, with tables and benches. At about 5 clock but then we made final. I'm running back to the hotel. Small relaxation in the early morning. Almost 2 km. It started to become bright As I passed the town hall, I saw a stand and stand on a poster that will be on Sunday at 10.00 clock anything. Thus, a short night. I have to get up no later than at 9.00 clock in order to miss nothing.
After I was busy on Saturday and Sunday and on Monday were found no problems with the system anymore, I'm me again today on the way home. This evening departure time from Lima, tomorrow night local time again in Berlin. But do not worry, the pause is not long. I'm flying next week again in the middle of the area. Then we go to Colombia. It also means stay tuned, dear readers!
I found a nice street coffee just across the street from the hotel. Can I recommend for visitors to Lima. Avenida Larco in Miraflores. Right at Kennedy Park. The name is "Manolo". Is quite pleasant to drink there every afternoon / evening his cafe con leche (coffee with milk), watch the pretty chicas on the road and to nibble on some churros. Churros are a fried pastries, filled with either chocolate or vanilla and cream. Seems to be very popular here. You can buy this stuff every 20m along the road. Thanks to the approaching summer, you can also sit up late into the evening here. Occasionally it will pass even a few of the famous Peruvian "El Condor Pasa" player.
Well, anyway here is what went wrong. Anyway, I had to head over, we go back to Lima. 'm Back here. This time only for a few days. Does my system install new again. Much free time will not, therefore, arise not so much of news here. Still looks every now and then clean.
