May 26
We are picked up at 8:15 this morning by Guido and driven to the airport. Quiet, efficient and friendly. Overall the Condor representatives have been on time and friendly. We will have some questions for Exotica and can't see any reason not to recommend going directly to Condor and skipping Exotica. All they really added was the air connections.
We have to pay to check our bags - contrary to the literature from Exotica, but I should have checked the airline site more closely. We paralleled the Andes for much of the flight and often saw mountains above the clouds (or so Greg tells me, as I think my eyes were mostly closed).
Then, back to the flat coast and Lima.

We can't check in till 3 hours before our flight, which isn't until 11:00 tonight. There is a luggage storage place but they want $2 per hour per bag, so we opt to keep it with us. We join lots of others sitting in hallways for quite a while, then eventually find seating down towards the chapel.
We find a restaurant where we can park our luggage with us and have a leisurely dinner.
American Airlines has a tiny presence here, and apparently all flights are late evening, because that is when they open lines for check-in.
The flight is uneventful and we get the exit row, so have a little more leg room. Small plane, no movies, so long flight. We arrive at Dallas at 8 AM and have two hours till our short flight to Houston. Happy to see Chap's smiling face as he is there to pick us up. Good to be home once again!
