Today, Oscar and Olivia are planning their day around Madhu’s schedule, gazing out from one of the salvaged balconies in Lima. Madhu does get the Urge to Wander. If you go to her place, Madhu has taken some beautiful photographs to accompany a wonderful article she has written about Lima’s historical wooden balconies. These beauties have only survived because a hand full of people cared enough to try to save them from demolition.
The Orples are looking out into the street below from inside one of Lima’s enclosed balconies.
While the orples are trying to decide where to start for the day, the rest of us can visit the neighborhood. If you care to join us. Feel free to peruse our previous posts and find out what is going on. All are welcome to be added to my list of participants in the Orple’s Adventures.

The Orples obviously aren’t scared of heights. 🙂

I suspect they’d bounce if they fell, although they do bruise. Oscar feel into some barbed wire when Jack was helping him and Olivia turn the orange tree they were born in into the Treasure Tree (Book 2 of the Orples series). They bleed orange juice, too. LOL.

Ahh, your Orples do seem to enjoy life on the edge don’t they? They must be absolutely convinced you are more skilled than all the kings horses and his men 😀

They’re young and naive. I suspect after a fall or two, they’ll stand back a bit.
