- Nazca lines
- Seafood buffet
meals
Today, we'll get up early in preparation for a packed day.
Firstly, we'll begin with a private flight over giant etchings in the desert otherwise known as the Nazca lines.
Secondly, we'll stop for lunch at Puerto Inca, where the archaeological centre of the Peruvian coast and a beautiful beach awaits us. Only those of us with a lot of courage will want to enter the sea, as the water temperature is a little cold and the waves very big.
Finally, we'll enjoy a seafood buffet next to the beach. After sampling the local seafood, we'll begin the long journey to the city of Arequipa.
travel day (car/bus/boat)
Above the Nazca Lines
11/11/2008
After getting out of bed relatively early, we drove to the airport of Nazca. After a short time of waiting (30 Peruvian minute = 2 hours ;)) we could finally start our adventurous flight.
Even though Alejandro warned us we were surprised how fast we got dizzy. But the view compensated for everything and after a Coca tea we were OK again.
Later, we drove to Puerto Inka to a wonderful isolated beach. Simply very relaxed. The weather until now was also very good – only sunshine :). Unfortunately, we still had a long and adventurous journey ahead of us (serpentines in the Andes…).
After 7 hours we arrived exhausted in Arequipa and fell into our bed. We are looking forward to the next days.
Conclusion of all (female) participators: “So soon we won’t fly again in a Cessna ;)”
