AKP 1973 Lima Peru March 5, 1973 Monday Arrival about 7:30 this AM and checked into Hotel Savoy. OP went after car and I wanted to deliver a suitcase to a Sra Gonzalez for a Peruvian girl staying with the Al Harmon. She came in the mid-morning, just after Dave Bradford appeared in the lobby. Sra Gonzales extended her hospitality to me, but we had much to do ourselves (plus didn't want to bother her). Dave + I then walked up to Plaza de Ceros to see Pujana's house in the cathedral there, and then walked down to Plaza San Martin where I split to do some souvenir shopping. I bought a fur rug for Dick + Boddie Carnall + went over to the address given me several years ago by Aunt Olga Lalot of a friend she made while on a round-the-world cruise - Sra. Zanstani, who runs the Cafe de Paris. "Pepita" was most friendly, and offered me a whiskey sour in the cafe while we talked. She told me to bring my husband the next day, and I said that I would if I could. Then more tourist shopping and back to the hotel. OP + I went to Pujana's friend and saw the new baby. There were two men from AMNH there, just returning to the United States after a month in Peru. He chatted for a while - Isabel and I puttin' the baby (John) to bed while the men talked in Manuel's study. Her name, Isabel,
