Nasca - 5.900 km.

É sempre bom baixar de altitude, especialmente com roupa molhada. O calor ajuda a sentir-se melhor. A estrada de Puquío a Nasca é muito bonita, seca como quase todo o ocidente do Peru, mas a vista da descida em direcao aa costa é muito bonita. Ali em Nasca estao as famosas linhas de Nasca, que foram tema varios livros e até hipóteses de astronautas. O mais provável, descubro, é que as linhas foram desenhadas pelos habitantes numa época de (ainda maior) seca em pedido aos deuses por chuva. Há ...

Lima - Nasca

Salimos 8:30am rumbo a Nasca.







El camino no amerita muchos comentarios pero nos llamo la atencion un camion con uno de esos dichos camioneros: "Tu embidia es mi progreso"






En el camino paramos en el museo de Maria Reiche donde esta su tumba. Han conservado el cuarto donde ella dormia y trabajaba sin cambios.

El museo es basico y tiene algunos mapas de ella y fotos.




Luego paramos en el mirador de las li...

Ruta Arequipa Nasca

Ya regresando de Arequipa a Nasca, tuvimos dos paradas en esas cosas extrañas que se ven en las carreteras del Peru. Una era un recordatorio de un accidente de un camion de circo. La siguiente era una capilla iniciada portres calaveras encontradas en la zona y que poco a poco se ha convertido en la capilla de todos los santos. No cesan de parar camiones que bajan, prenden una vela, rezan y siguen su camino.

El baño del lugar tenia un aviso gracioso. Estaba cerrado asi que nunca supimo...

Lineas de Nasca

Luego de las 12 horas de viaje de Arequipa a Nasca, el chofer amanecio en Nasca hecho leña.

Tomamos en Nasca un desayuno tranquilo y salimos a visitar los acueductos de Cantalloc, ojos de agua y canales de los Nasca aun en uso hoy en día. Se encuentran a unos 5km subiendo por la nueva carretera a Puquio. Los canales tienen 20 accesos en forma de espiral hechos con cantos piedras de rio.

Mas adelante visitamos el petroglifo gigante de La Aguja, hecho por los Nascas arrimando la...

Back to Nazca

We headed back to Nazca this morning in order to approach Cuzco, our next stop, from another road. Although not much to do in Nazca, I was pleased to be be able to get to a local doctor and get some drugs. It was quite an experience. Dr Jimenez seemed excited to have some patients. It was as though he hadn't seen any for a while. He was pretty thorough and gave me some antibiotics which seem to have done the trick. He also then gave Roz and I a lift to a nearby cafe for some lunch!! When we g...

Sunshine in the desert - warm at last!!

... can support one family let alone fifteen. They have a very poor and very harsh existence but are able to survive due to water supplies provided by underground aqueducts. It is not exactly plentiful but enough to eke a living from a hostile terrain.

A few miles from the village are, in a very grim fashion, some open graves. We are told that they were the final resting place of some ancient Nascans and that tomb-robbers had discovered the graves and stolen ...

Lines and lines for miles and miles!

... as being primarily used as sacred paths leading to places where these deities could be worshiped, and the figures as symbolically representing animals and objects meant to invoke their aid. Other theories include gods being able to see these in the sky, that the lines pointed to stars on the horizon, that the lines were used as looms for producing large pieces of textile. After the show, we were taken outside to do a spot of stargazing, where we saw planets

Lines in the sand

... a fast food chicken outlet in Cuzco. (They still managed to see Machu Picchu though – by taking the train instead.) I was lucky enough to be sitting in front alongside the pilot so I had a bird's eye view of the lines. I enjoyed seeing the lines and even though the plane did a few sharp turns and the fact that I had eaten earlier, I luckily did not get air sick at all. We got to see the lines and shapes of the spider, hummingbird, monkey, spider, condor and even ...

Road to Nazca

... impact like that. I felt guilty being in a luxury bus as it drove through these damaged towns – a couple of kids at one stage waving or running after the bus. I couldn't take pictures – felt wrong to do it. But as I turned to see what the other tourists were doing, some had taken out their zoom lenses and were snapping away so I thought that it would be ok just to take a few shots. It must have been so hard for these ...
