Quest of The Gods - Peru
We have just completed a two week stint in Peru. We have been incommunicado for most of it as we have seen the Amazon Jungle (did try my best to find the wi-fi) and up a mountain doing the Inka Trail (you'd of thought you could get good reception up there!!).

Capital City of Lima! (dusty and dirty) no sun!
S 12. 11. 974 W 076. 58. 491 Alt: 33m Temp: 19 degrees C @ 8 am
245 miles south of Las Tortugas, we arrived in the capital city of Lima, lots of traffic,compared to the very light traffic across the desert. Here we will "base " for a few days, see the city, and do the side trips to MachuPicchu, Galopus Islands, or other locations.
