Walk sector 9

Departure: Around 8h30 AM?
Arrival: Around 9h30
Distance: 2.6Km
Type Walk.
Gear: Like yesterday. 

Not much. I came out, the cleaning woman was brushing the pavement in front of the building. Walked to 28 de Julio. Nothing special. Walked on Larco. A guy tried to give me a flyier for La Lucha, sugucheria Criolla, but I passed. Got to parque Salazaar. There was this woman who is always there. I walked through the malecon, as usual. The water was quite clear. Less surfers than usual. Two Teckels where resting next to a bench. Stopped at the bench at my usual spot. The dogs of the park made their entrance. There was this Jack Russell. There´s something about Jack Russells that makes me smile. 

I was thinking about Lima. This worrying situation. 8.5 million inhabitants. Buildings as far as the eye can see. Very little water, ce paysage denaturalisé, the streams that have disapeared and not a single cultivation around. And Limeños seem to have no will to get out of this situation. I mean the bajada Balta could be a vegetable garden. And I´m almost totally alone here. I have no friends to create some sort of team to do stuff....and I am kind of shy to get involved in the life of this community. Gathering people around? Organizing stuff? Going to the municipality and telling them what they need to do? 

Anyway, there was a group of young tourists. Americans maybe from a school or something. I heard one mumble something like "...every singleday". I went under the bridge. There was a man under there on the ground there was some vegetals and somewater dripping from above. Went up and headed my way back home with no particular event. I stopped to buy bananas and that´s all.
