The Navigator, the voyager, the Bold
MJ here. Not being catholic I didn't realize there was a St. Brendan. I've now done my wikipedia research and learned you are the navigator, the voyager, "the bold". Well, indeed...it all makes sense now. Your photos brought back some wonderful memories for us.Very nice changing of the guard photos. As you said without really saying, Lima is a big city. It has its place but it is a big city. I remember I was so excited to get to Peru. We arrived late and went straight to bed. We were living in Seattle at the time of our trip. First thing the next morning I through open the curtains and straight in front of me sat a Starbucks. I had to look twice. I thought, darn, guess I'm not as far from Seattle as I thought. That was one of the few disappointments I had on our travels in Peru. Indeed we have loved following your around Peru and look forward to your future adventures.

Great meeting you!
Excellent account of our adventures in the ruins, and I{m so glad you got to try the guinea pig, you adventurous eater. It was amazing magic that we were able to connect here in Peru, so in a couple of years when I return home, I{ll have to head up north to see you and the TB community up there. May you feast in Lima!

Sandboarding Heaven...
Excellent tip that the Ica sandboarding is better than in Nazca--steeper, more dunes and none of that trucking back up the dune--perfect! Great to see you're packing in the adventures before the restaurants of Lima that hopefully will inspire you in your restaurant until your next adventure.

If you don't come back... use this as an excuse ;)
"I've been away so long. I may go wrong and lose my way...."

Great advebntures!
Both your Nazca blogs were full of such great adventures. You may not speak Spanish, but you're fab at calling a taxi or an agency to take you out for your own personal adventures! Love those spiral aqueducts and sand dune shots. Best wishes on a yummy time in very foodie Lima.

Great sunset!
Hi B, loved this sunset picture. Will have to get mom down to see it in color. You know, you can't see a sunset or sunset picture without thinking about her. Everything you have written about and pictured on this trip has been fantastic. Next thing you know you will be a snow boarder. Have fun!

Cool perspective!
Great photo! You are oozing happiness!! :)

You be having fun!
Loved every minute of this blog entry! Ancient aqueducts, sun bleached desert bones, dune buggy and sand boarding, it all sound like magic! Even ordinary Chinese food sounds exotic and that sunset! Almost as enchanting as the one from my wine country balcony in summer. Great entry! Glad freak out Brendan was beaten back. On to the next!

Sandboarding looks like so much fun! I guess they don't provide a ride back up the slope. If we make it out there, this will definitely be added to our to-do list. p.s. CA has not fallen into the ocean yet~ :)

Look out world here comes sand boarding Brendan.
We had not heard about the aqueducts and they look very interesting. Wish we had seen that in our research. As you said you can't see everything.

This looks exceptional!
