So we have made our way up the coast from Arequipa since our last update and there have been even more trials and tribulations to report. Firstly, arriving in Arequipa after a lovely flight with LAN from Cusco, Amber realises she is now without her beloved camera and subsequently all snaps of Machu Picchu... AAARRGH!!! Turns out it fell out of her rucksack at the hotel in Cusco, they found it and very kindly popped it straight in the post to Arequipa... thank god we stayed somewhere expensive...
Lima, Peru ambersmith1978Hey folks, we've left Rio and on to our second port of call, Lima. Only here for 2 days 'cos we start the Machu Picchu tour tomorrow - really looking forward to it! So, our last night in Rio was one of the best! We spent the whole day strolling round and then went up Sugarloaf mountain, where you just get the most amazing views of the most amazing city - was really special. We stayed up there until dark to see it all lit up, it was just spectacular! After a great day, we packed and then decid...

Trujillo, Peru charlyvanessSo that's it. Done and dusted. And I survived! I must say I am very proud of the both of us for being able to complete it with no hiccups and a little bit of energy to spare. It was damn hard but I actually thought it would be worse (or should I say, I would be worse!). After our ordeal of getting back to the hotel, we didn't do much except sit on our ***** in our hotel room. Nick had a bit of a dodgy stomach (which we were thankful didn't hit on the actual Trail) so we just stayed put. Leavi...
Lima, Peru nickandbevGot a bus to Trujillo and met Tony for dinner (Tony is a lovely Australian guy we met on the Sipan tour who is travelling from Alaska to Argentina on his motorbike!). We had dinner at a restaurant that had the most beautiful cakes, Tony had a chocolate cake, Joan was drooling all over her black forest gateau and Rob even had a lemon meringue pie, marvellous. Bed at 12 that night, late for us! The next day wewent on a tour with Tony and a few other guys to see Huaca de Luna (the temple of the ...
Trujillo, Peru robandjoanAnd here I sit having just arrived in Cuzco less than an hour ago. Nancy´s up in our room and I came down to do a quick email check and write up a few thoughts on the past 18 hours. Before I get into the events and other thoughts, I want to say Happy Birthday to Esther, so, HAPPY BIRTHDAY ES!!! I´d call, but I don´t think my oxygen and sleep-deprived mind can totally wrap itself around how to use the phone here quite yet. It´s all I can do to type on this funky keyboard with all the superfluo...

... das uns die ca. 40% des Pisco nicht ganz unbeeindruckt liessen. Es dauerte letztendlich eine Weile bis wir wieder ganz nuechtern wurden und als einziger Trost blieb uns die Tatsache, dass die drei Maedels von der XS Version des Pisco Sour genauso angeheitert waren wie wir von der XL Version.<br><br>Zur spaeteren Stunde besuchten wir schliesslich noch die beeindruckenden "Fountains of Lima", einer von Carlas Geheimtipps ...

Lima, Lima, Peru inkalover... so it is thought that the Nazca people were praying to the Gods for water, and creating these amazing drawings so that the Gods could see their prayers better. Up the next morning and back in Moose for a stop in Puerto Inca, where we camped on the beach again. Puerto Inca is on the coast and we had a swim in the Pacific! Only drawback is that it was feezing because the Humbolt current comes right past. The four boys on the truck (2 poms, one ...
Lima, Peru fact... written a bit too frequently and spent too much time of Facebook (which, incidentally, i hate, although it has proved very valuable here), but have found a nice groove here in Lima and feel good about spending some time writing today. Since i last wrote, i went to Cusco with Zac to meet up with Kara and Patrick to do what ended up being a grueling, wonderful hike to Choquequirao (ruins similar to Machupicchu) and to visit the famous ruins outside of Aguas Calientes. To say ...
