Anarchy on the Panamericana
After a day recuperating in Mancora, topping up our tans, we pushed southwards again. This time it was a huge days drive we planned…600km in total which is a lot in a country where most of the drivers seem to be sociopaths. The day started well and we were well on the way to making it nearly halfway by lunchtime when we hit some kind of roadworks. As we saw that traffic ahead was stationary we pulled off to one side to buy some fruit from ...

St. Patty's Day
What better way to celebrate St. Patrick's Day than to visit the oldest known civilization in the Americas… well, listening to Irish music and drinking Guinness with friends would be nice, but this was a decent second choice.
We drove to the coast from the mountains on a nicely paved road (hooray!) back through craggly mountains, steep farmlands and then barren hills and sand dunes as far as the eye could see. ...
The Beaches of Peru
"I gotta go where there aint any snow
Where there aint any blow
Cause my fin sinks so low
I gotta go where it's warm"
Even though Wind Aid hasn't been at all what I was expecting, we did get the opportunity to see several beaches up and down the coast of Peru during a 4 day road trip to visit 3 installations (Tonight’s the night…). None of the playas were as nice as the ones on the Gulf but I’ll take a warm and sunny ...
