Peru, so far so good.
We just arrived in Nazca & I'm anxious to get to Cuzco.
All of Peru's coast seems the same. It's desert. It's hot. The little towns are poor, dusty, & not too remarkable. The bigger towns & cities have bigger buildings, & more ways to occupy your time till you move to your next destination, but we haven't been anywhere yet that we wanted to spend more time than we did yet.
Counting back: Chiclayo, Trujillo, Lima, Pisco, & now Nazca were all very similar for us. We visited museums & ruins in the first 3 & from Pisco we visited the Ballestas Islands, the "poor man's Galapagos" where we saw a lot of animals (sea lions, pelicans, inca terns, sea otters, crabs, humbolt penguins, & others). Pictures will follow later, we're backed up on photos & it's gonna take me a long time to upload everything.
Our bus tomorrow night to Cuzco is a luxury sleeper bus, I'm not looking forward to the 15 hour trip, but I am looking forward to a bus ride with movies & a stewardess...
Later,
Kepfram
