Hello everyone! So today we spent the time being tourists. We spent the night in Lambayeque with E's cousin. It was nice to spend time in a real home. We went to an Incan museum called museo tumbas reales de sipan. It was really cool! It was all about the local natives from this area called the machicas. They had the bones of an incan priest and of The Lord of the Incan city that was here, called sipan. Later we spent the day in downtown Chiclayo and just walked around all day. We saw a group practicing marinera dancing, It's a kind if Peruvian dance and it was so cool! Last big detail from today, a girl in our group got her purse stolen while we were at dinner. The thief followed us into the restaurant and just took it while we were busy talking and E had left to get something. Unfortunately it had her phone and wallet in it. Fortunately, she had left her passport at home. That is honestly the most important thing to keep track of. I let her use my phone to call her dad and have him start canceling cards and stuff. I hope that's ok. Well that's about all we did today. I love you guys! Dad, I probably won't be able to visit the family this weekend, but we will be back next weekend. Also, E told me that it is a very poor area, and kind of dangerous. But she said she would take me. (Kelly baptized a family in Chiclayo while he served there on his mission)
