Happy Valentines Day

This last Saturday night, Valentines day, Kelly and I were able to sneak away for a few hours and have some time alone. We decided to check out a restuarant down on the Amazon river. It was spectacular. It is a two story, elegant dining restuarant, floating in the middle of the Amazon river. It has its own private pool, you get chauffeured over on a private boat, and there is even live music. Kelly and I went at dusk, an apparently un-popular time, and were able to have a beautiful view of the sun setting on the mighty Amazon. We were accompanied by a pleasany breeze, a few pesky mosquitos, and a gorgeous restuarant to ourselves.



Here are some photos that we were able to take on a friends camera.

Here we are heading out to the restuarant. This is one of the more expensive places in town. About $10 USD a plate. Affordable for an American, but not for most Peruvians (or Volunteers).

A shot of the city lights. It was so peaceful. No sounds. Tranquility. Romance. What more could you want... They even had real flowers sitting on the table. The food was incredible. We are here drinking some amazing Passion Fruit juice, and endulging in some Peruvian delicacies.
