Lima is one of my favorite cities in South America. This opening ceremony brings back memories. ¡Arriba, Perú!

Indeed, a beatiful city... and comparing to Mexican cities and even Santiago de Chile, quite clean, at least in the areas around the main square and other tourist spots.

Wow Canada's governor general is literaly right beside the big heads. I wonder why she gets to sit there

I've never been to Mexico City (it's one of my dreams, but I'll eventually visit it in the future), but Santiago is very nice. The only problem there is heavy pollution. But unfortunately I think Mexico City will be the same or even worse.

This anthem is longer than Maglione's speech from 4 years ago... just kidding

I think its worse in Mexico City... nevertheless is one of those places you need to visit during your lifetime. Great place to visit, but terrible place to live.

By the way, I've explained it before but this is the perfect moment for me to do it again: "Arriba, Peru" sounds quite funny for us Brazilians. The word peru in Brazil means the country Peru, the animal turkey and a slang for penis. Arriba, Peru can be understood as "rise, cock".

Really digging the projections. And that was an original way of performing the national anthem (don't know if it was entirely successful).

I have like the ceremony so far. In comparison, Guadalajara's was quite boring and predictable, except for the audience, which was really engaged in the party atmosphere.

None of these performers know how to ride a skateboard and it shows

This segment is a similar to Rio OC but I might be a little biased here.
