On the evening of the 29th of september Patricio, Luis, Miguel and I also managed to have our first Lima Geobloggers Meeting in Larcomar. Patricio even managed to make this nice logo which of course shows-up rather late (Internet connection from San Miguel/Lima was awful) on my blog but I like it.

So we met in the Hooters Bar (contrary to what the logo says...) in Larcomar, drank a nice Peruvian beer and had plenty to laugh about from personal and very hilarious geo-anecdotes of which we better not share the content online.

From left to right: En Morrenas, Lost Geologist, MiGeo and Geocosas.
It was great meeting you guys by the way!
The congress: It was awesomely big. Ok, it was my first big one. But still. I have a lot of people whom I promised to write. There are one or two possibilities that could develop into a master thesis, however, I prefer to celebrate once I have something concrete. Anyways, the presentations went on for 4 days in 4 different rooms 10 hours each day. Almost every kind of topic was somehow adressed with a focus on mining and mineral deposits and, of course, Latinamerican geology. If you are interested the programm is still online on their website. Also I heard the presentations will (or already are?) be uploaded to a website. I'll let you know once I know more.
The entire event was finalised by a nice dinner in a great Argentinian restaurant in Miraflores together with two kind professors from Brasil and a local geology student (hi Jenny!).

Ah, en espanol!
Glad you had a good trip.
Glad to ear you arrive healthy and well. Was nice to meet you, may be in another congress we meet again. Keep in touch.
That was so good! We have to meet us again! Thanks for the recommendation!. Keep in touch!
I'm glad you had such a nice and insightful time.
Still, I was afraid that you and your South American Geoblog Clique would beat me to Péter's WoGE. Luckily for me, you had better things to do. ;-)
Thanks for all the nice comments! :)
