So, I assume it's news in the states as well, but here this story's really big. So have you guys heard that the guy who killed Natalee Holloway in Aruba came to Lima and murdered a Peruvian girl? Yeah it's definitely all over the news here. Apparently he never did any real time for the first murder because there wasn't hard evidence, but after all this I guess he confessed to her murder. Yeah he was in a casino and I think the girl had won a lot of money. We actually passed by the casino the other night on the tourbus i think. After he murdered her he bolted for Chile but they caught him. I'm just glad he's caught. Pobrecitas.
Also, Alan Garcia, the president, recently visited with President Obama in the White House and the Peruvian actress Q'orianka something protested outside the White House. She played Pocahantas in The New World with Colin Farrell and Christian Bale. Really good movie, she's a good actress. And there were people from some group protested alongside here for something about the Amazon and conserving the rainforest.
Just a little bit of noticias for you!

Hanna, yes I heard about that a-hole who murdered Natalie Holloway. I emailed your dad about it. I figure the streets of Lima are safe now for my lovely niece! Interesting world news going on around you. I would be interested to hear more about the protests...I assume it is in opposition to deforestation of the Amazonian rainforest. How fascinating! Love you! xoxo Aunt Amy
ReplyDeleteHanna,
ReplyDeleteHow do I go back to view previous days' entries? I didn't log in yesterday. Thanks! Aunt Amy
Oh, off to the left there's a drop-down list that says blog archive, and I think you can view posts by week. And yes, I do believe the protests were in regards to the deforestation.
ReplyDeleteOMGosh! This is so much like the phenomenon where you never notice a certain car make and model until you buy one, then they're all over the place. So, the same with Lima, it's never on the news until you go there! I'm glad they caught the guy.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I'm glad he's caught, but it's unfortunate he had to kill a second person for that to happen.
