I had so much fun reading this last tale!! Thanks so much for it! Although I've been to most places that you mention in this story, I really do envy you for being able to travel this long right now.

Guys, enjoy ALL of this, even if there are crappy times every once in a moon!!! Be safe, be healthy and continue to have a fantastic journey!! Can't wait to read more :-) Love - Yvonne |

| 8th September 2005 David | Estoy de acuerdo - From: The last fortnight starts with a splash and me falling off a horse I too was visited Sacsayhuaman when we visited Cuzco to do the tourist thing and I can confirm it is awesome. Did you see Pizac? That too is hugely impressive..especially for a man like me who failed to get to see the big M.P. It even sounds like you may have used the same white water rafting company as us..was it on the Urubamba! Shame you won't get to see any more of Peru further north..it may mostly be desert where we were but it is awesome desert nonetheless. When you get home list the things which irritate you about England compared to South America..we can compare notes at uni. |
