We went to a Peruvian restaurant last night, about an hour's walk from home, it was a warm day, somewhere in the 30s and we could hear the sounds of football fans being excited by the last day of the season (Boca needed to draw to win the championship, Estudiantes, the only team that could catch them, needed to win, and for Boca to lose, then they would have a play off for the title). Boca were winning 1-0 at half time but we figured something was up when it got towards full time and the streets weren't filled with cars honking their horns. Boca messed up and lost 2-1, Estudiantes won 2-0 so there's going to be the final on wednesday at 5... I wonder how much work will be done that night.

Update: Boca fluffed it and after being 1-0 up, managed to lose 2-1.

The restaurant was full of, surprisingly, Peruvians, it was a cheap place and the TVs played loud salsa with 80's style videos. The food was okay, a little spicier than Argentine food generally.

As we left though it started raining and within 10 minutes the streets were flooded. Thankfully we got a cab home where we had a three hour lightning show.... hence the photo...  ¶ 3:07 PM
