Sacred valley
Sacred valley near Macchu Picchu. There are lots of Inca ruins here. And lots of doll sellers too.... Am back home now!! Well, until the first week in October anyway.........
Here's my last installment of South America, covering the last bit of Peru (Nazca for the famous Nazca lines, and Lima) after which I flew to Quito in Ecuador. Quito is where you fly to Galapagos from, and also where I was flying back to England from.
Had such a great time in South America, it was quite a wrench to leave. Especially as I met a lot of people in Galapagos who were just starting their South American trip. They were full of talk about going to some of the places I had been too. Was very tempted to cancel my flight and do the whole thing again!
But then, its always best to leave a party too early than too late, and besides, South East Asia is calling......Who knows what to expect there!
I didn't know what to expect in South America, and in the words of the Glastonbury website "Its always better to find new things you didn't know you liked, than confirming the things you already know you like" and this is how I felt about South America. Add to
Huacachina
Tiny oasis village, surrounded by dunes where you can go sandboarding and dune buggying. I was ill here so unfortunately just spent 2 days lying by the oasis feeling sorry for myself...... that the list of about 100 places that I never made it to this time, and I know that one day I will definitely be going back!
