A mixture of good and bad for us. We loved Arequipa and Barranco (near Lima) and obviously Machu Pichu and the Inca Trail was fantastic. But we were disappointed with Cusco, Lima and Nasca and didn’t really feel that welcome in some of the places we went.
Mother Nature Alters Our Route
June 3, 2010The erupting volcano near Antigua forces us to travel through El Salvador to Honduras.
Good Food And Bad Food
May 29, 2010We take a flight over the Nasca Lines which makes me feel more than a little bit queasy. Then it's off to Lima for a day or two which culminates in a culinary extravanganza before Lee flies home.
Biking, Trekking, Mummies And Riding
May 25, 2010An incredible day's cycling in the mountains and two days of trekking leads us to Machu Picchu. Then it's off to Arequipa where we visit a convent and try out horse riding for the first time.
