We spent a few days in Lima where the best thing we did was eat cow heart on a skewer and see Pizarro´s grave.

Peruvians don´t know what to do with Pizarro since he basically ruined their way of life, but also brought horses, so the literature around his tomb is full of backhanded compliments. This is in a solid cathedral near a solid monastery where some sort of Communist rally was happening. The monastery is dedicated to a Saint who preferred to be shown standing on a half-dozen baby heads at all times. Kevin refuses to go on any tours so that's why we don't know anything.
