On the road again

The last days were filled with long bus rides and interesting sights: We left Cusco on the 4th of May and took a 13 hour overnight bus to Nazca, where we met John again. We did a flight in a 6-person-plane (just the four of us, Dan, Dave, John, I and the two pilots) over the Nazca lines ... here the hummingbird.



Later the same day, we went on to Ica and and spent the evening sand boarding, dune buggying and having barbecue at the oasis town of Huacachina. The next day, we took a boat tour round the Pallestas Islands, seeing thousands of birds, sea lions, and a few penguins.



On the 6th, we went to Lima, watching Spiderman and eating tons of greasy American food: Burger King, Pizza Hut, KFC and Starbucks.



Then we took the next overnight bus to Huaraz (which is where I am right now). Yesterday, we visited the glacier, and today the turquoise green laguna of Llanganuco. Tomorrow, we will spend a day at the hot springs, and then go back to Lima for two days.






It feels good to be traveling again. And buses here are (apart from being cheaper) way more comfortable than the Eurolines... well, at least apart from the annoying music they play all the time.
