How to eat fried Guinea Pig (and other stories...)

Nazca times

After a 7 hour coach journey which had better seats than the plane but which we still couldnt sleep on (and a sick bag and laughing peruvian man later for me), as well as a meal with the whole bus in the middle of nowhere at a random restaurant, we arrived in Nazca to be met by Israel and one of Alex´s cousins (but they´re all cousins here). They whisked us to Huang Zhou hostel, cool little place with a tiny pool and terrace.

Had an awesome night last night (20th feb) with Hannah and Alex and their friends and family, whizzing round in a open backed jeep, going round the plaza more times than necessary and people watching all the folks hanging outside til the small hours. We chilled and played guitar with H&A and some chilean guys staying at the hostel. Its so nice to be able to stay outside all night with hardly any layers on! Before we knew it, it was 3am and time for bed!

Now for a day of organising nazca lines trips, sandbuggying and duneboarding and parties at remote lagoons (gona be sick). peace guys we love and miss you all and wish you could all chill wth us in the peruvian sun xxxx

So, here we are in Lima, three days in and we´ve fallen in love with this crazy city! Danny´s bag emerged on the second day after a lonely flight on it´s own from JFK to pariwana hostel, luckily it was intact and still had everything there, just a few scuffs and bruises from the baggage guys.

The hostel is great really friendly people, we´ve met Les, resident english guy about fifty and hilarious, he´s been here since september!! also Tom from Canada, good fun and loves the little peruvian ladies, so funny seeing them crowd round him and ask for photos!

Danny has of course taken to travelling like a duck to water and you´d think he´s been doing it all his life, aside from the sunburnt shoulder!! Im pleased to say my tan is coming along nicely despite being here only three days! Mwahahahahaha! my priorities havent changed eh?!

So we´ll be off to nazca to see Hannah and Alex tomorrow (after delaying a few days because of loving lima so much!) just chilling today, maybe beach later then there´s drinking games and bbq later! gona run as ive been hogging the pc but will carry on in more detail as soon as i can (izzi!!) peace x
