Today was spent mostly running errands. I had to go pick up my Passport, which for whatever reason is required for me to pick up my mail. But by the time I got to the post office it was closed because the former president died. So, I have to go back tomorrow. Then tonight I had Spanish lessons. I have finally learned every verb tense there is in Spanish. Now I can just focus on vocabulary, hopefully.
Today I also found a place that sells movie copies that are decent quality. The thing about Peru is that you can't find movie originals anywhere. They're too expensive for people here. So the black market is HUGE here. I don't think it's illegal either, or if it is, the police don't seem to mind, because they too buy the black market movies. That being said, most of the movies are terrible quality. Mostly people taking video cameras into movie theatres. The place I found today, however, sells videos that are just copies of the originals. And so I bought Dead Poets Society and Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade. They have so many more movies I want. But they're $1.30/each which is about 3 times as expensive as other movies on the street. So I guess I'm gonna have to wait to buy more.
