Am enjoying updating this so I am sure you will all get bored with reading it!
After our 6hr bus journey from Lima(with no toilets, yes i survived it, just!) we arrived in Huachachina which is a gorgeous place surrounded by sand dunes. Weather was lovely so sunbathed lots, but very cold at night. Once again i was clumsy and sliced my finger on a razor, bled for ages, nice!
We went over the sand dunes in a sand dune buggy which was great but very scary, the scenery was amazing. we also sand boarded which took alot of guts, i did spend most of the time on my bum! At one point the instructor guy went to pull me up but I struggled and managed to pull him on top of me and hurt his wrist, classic me

!Have been sampling the local tipple, Pisco Sour which is very nice!
As we wondered round the lake in the center of the little place a English teacher and her chn asked to practise English on us so we chatted and ended up singing baa baa black sheep to them, v surreal and obviously they loved it as we all know how well i can sing!
From there we travelled to Nasca where I am now. Today we flew over the Nasca lines and I who does not travel well at the best of times has learnt a great lesson, never fly in a small 3 seater plane! I was very ill!
We leave here tonight for a 9hr bus journey (this time with toilets!).
