What's Up Wednesday

  

Happy Wednesday, I'm coming at you from the Southern Hemisphere, Lima Peru. Hola!

What we're eating this week...

I've had some good meals so far here in Lima, but I haven't had any ceviche or pisco sours yet.  Maybe tonight.

 

What I'm reminiscing about...

Obviously the time when Dave and I visited Peru in 2012. I didn't have this blog back then, but later on I did a couple of posts about our trip, you can read them here: Lima and Cusco and Machu Picchu. 

What I'm loving...

I love travelling. It really is so important to get out of your little bubble and experience new places. It shows us how people live their lives differently but also how similar we all really are.  Peruvians - they're just like us! (But also different.)You can make a lot of assumptions about different parts of the world and it's so good to challenge those assumptions.

What we've been up to...

With the snow we got last weekend, the kids were finally able to go sledding on Saturday morning.  It was a beautiful day.

What I'm dreading...

I arrive home from Peru at 1:00 am and I'm not looking forward to that flight and being up so late.  Fortunately the following day is a holiday so I will get to sleep in a bit.

What I'm working on...

Well I haven't started this yet, but we need to get our taxes done soon.

What I'm excited about...

Honestly I'm excited to see King Charles at Easter services this weekend, he said he would be attending.  I am one of those people who have engaged in numerous conspiracy theories related to him and Kate, but ultimately I, of course, want them back to be fine. It will be great to see him out and about this weekend. 

What I'm watching/reading...

Right now I'm watching a Peru vs. Dominican Republic friendly soccer game. I love the Peru team's jerseys.

The library computer system is back online so my holds came in and I'm finally reading Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorow.  I love it so far.

What I'm listening to...

I'm catching up on The Bridge podcast.  I didn't listen when we were in Quebec and that set me back. 

What I'm wearing...

This week I'm wearing some summer type dresses and no nylons!  It's nice to be in a warm climate for a couple of days.

What I'm doing this weekend...

Celebrating Easter.  It's my favourite holiday!

What I'm looking forward to next month...

The eclipse, Blue Jays baseball, kids' summer sports getting underway, and maybe golf courses will be opening?!

What else is new...

Pizza night was back on at our house on Friday.  Now that ski season is over we feel like we can spend a bit more time relaxing on Friday night instead of doing all the prep work to be gone for most of the weekend.  

Linking up with Shay.
