Hotel Senorial

Our hotel in Lima was nice; located in the Miraflores section of Peru, well-hidden from the bus driver, it opened on a courtyard with most rooms surrounding that area. Some rooms, like ours, were in a back portion of the hotel, but we had a wonderful view of the back gate.


If you look closely at the picture above, you can see that the dining area was a sheltered outdoor pavilion. Since the temperatures don't vary that much in coastal Lima and it never rains (mists, yes; rains, no) an outdoor area is quite pleasant. Adorning the walls of this dining area are names and comments from groups that have stayed there. If you are diligent, you might even run across the name of someone you know, or a group you are familiar with, such as the Woodland Oaks church of Christ.


Most of the graffiti is just black magic marker, but here and there you can find works of art. Well, works that took longer to draw than others. Like the flags below:


Or the mountain drawing.


Or even the Olive Branch group that was here in the summer for the VBS at the Community.

And how long did it take to work this one out?


I guess, when all the white space is covered, they just paint over and start again.
