| 24th June 2009 TexasPhil | - From: Aguas Calientes - Gateway to Machu Picchu Hi Charlie, I think Iquitos is pretty calm now. When I left there was not word on the street about any more protests. I wouldnīt expect anything now that the problems in the north are settled for the moment. I havenīt stayed at Ceiba Tops.Itīs too much of a resort for me, but if the weather had been not been unseasonably cool, Iwould have gone ther the last night to take advantage of the air conditioner. Youīll love it down there. Let me know if you go and I can help you with ideas about what to see and where to go without getting riped off. |
| 24th June 2009 Charles Rouse | peru - From: Aguas Calientes - Gateway to Machu Picchu Heading to Lima and Iquitos next week. 2 pilots and Spanish speaking Mechanic. Paxs plans changed because of threat of strikes in Cusco. Had planed on spending a week in Iquitos, 3 nights at Ceiba Tops. Now we need to decide to stay in Lima or head on to Iquitos. Any thoughts. Thoroughly enjoying your trek. Hope you get home without too much headache. Charlie |
