Lima, Peru pamericas... plus, this is Peru, and no one would be ready if anything ever actually happened "on time."<br><br>Everyone seemed to really enjoy the food. I thought it turned out pretty good myself. We actually managed to eat most of the veggies! When I say most, I mean probably 8 of 10 kilos! These Peruvians sure can pack it away! <br><br>Oh, I almost forgot – dessert! We followed the meal up with a mid-day fogata (bonfire) to cook smores. I had to improvise a ...
Lima, Peru forbes.thompson... of work.. So I'll bring up the buses again (I probably talk about them a lot, but I almost 2 hours a day on them looking around). I was on one yesterday, and I think it's the first car I've been in where I've seen a moving speedometer--I say moving b/c to say working would be a bit of an overstatement. It was also the only thing moving--the gas gauger and everything else was pinned on empty. <br><br>Last night we were treated ...
Lima, Lima, Peru mpbezoldOff reasonably early without breakfast, trying to find our way out of Barranca. We spot a inter city bus and follow that to the road out then refuel.<br>Just as we rejoin the Pan Am we see the turning for Caral, the site of some 5000 year old Inca ruins.<br>Caral is approached via a 25km dirt road which winds through the Supa valley, a narrow strip of fertile land following the river / riverbed (it only flows 5 months a year) squeezed between the high dry ...
Lima, Peru pearcy... electricity and food....... <br><br>How can you possibly fill a void where a mother has abandoned a chilt to the streets to prostetution, hunger and abuse?????? yet a smile can be offered by these young people which will be etched in our minds for the rest of our lives....<br><br>Emilio.. was one of these young people whom we will miss greatly. Although we have moved on, its my hope that he knows, we wont move on from him or forget about him..<br><br>Liber8
Lima, Peru liber8... she was so young and so out of her league as a new mother, that I (along with others around me) helped her out whenever we could. I have actually grown to love these long bus rides now. These are times that are actually stress relievers to the common backpacker. Our big bags are safely stored below, and that is a huge burden off our shoulders (literally). During the night, my iPod serves as entertainment when I don´t feel like ...
Lima, Peru mhuttoAfter stopping for the morning at Huacachina ...(an oasis like you'd see out of a picture book completely in the middle of the desert) Jo and I went sand bording on the dunes which was total childish fun and produced quite a few screams!<br>Then onto Lima and here we started what was to be the long process of goodbyes as our group of 30 started to dwindle down.
Lima, Peru sheilajortw... out, but she didn´t know. At the Lima airport, we´re waiting for baggage and I see my bag come through in a plastic bag. I grab it and see hiking sandals strapped to the outside of my bag but I can´t tell through the plastic, so I rip it open, wondering how my sandals got from inside my bag to the outside?? I pull out the sandals and they´re not mine. What? Why are someone else´s sandals strapped to my bag?? I carefully set them on the baggage carousal so the ...
Lima, Peru kyakawena... wearing jeans and jumpers! Have realised my weather assessment is all wrong and I don't have a pair of shorts in my big bag......! Our hotel is nice and does the trick, but we were facing the main road and tooting goes on until late in Peru.
Peru, Peru torsginger... learnt English from an American English teacher that was staying with her and with whom she still keeps in touch. She then asked for my email so that we could write to each other as she wanted to keep practising her English and had no one to practise with. She and her dad seemed really friendly and I thought it would be nice to have a "pen pal" from Peru. They soon said goodbye as they had to board their bus which had just arrived. I ...
