Lawrence vs Lima: the roads by Reese

One of the first things the randall family did in Peru was get in the car and head to our hotel. It was late, about midnight and the thirty minute drive was a bit scary. The situation on the roads is a lot different then in Lawence everyone is always cutting each other off randomly stopping to turn. People love their horns, in Kansas we have turning signals and signs in Lima they have horns, loud horns. Some sound like sirens and will turn a tourists head some are normal horns and some sound more like an angry metallica songs then horns. At stop lights people jump out in front of you and start to perform. They dance and throw fire and try to sell you things. It's madness. There is like a three foot wide median In the middle of most busy streets. Tons of people are lined up and talking. Some are preparing to preform some are waiting for a bus and some are selling things to stopped traffic. If anyone in Lawrence started to preform In the middle pf the street I think the Lawrence police would take them away and everyone would be pretty dang confused. Today while walking to Starbucks my colorblind dad jumped outing the middle of the road thinking the pedestrian signal said green instead of red and I yelled dad and he looked up and jumped back before a car hit him. And I thought massstreet was busy... I miss the roads in Lawrence but I'm having a great time hopefully the much lesser populated peura is less busy. We,ll keep you updated
