Iguazu Falls

Sunday, 26 Aug 2007 | Views [421]

Well I spent my 25th birthday on a 4 hour bus from Lima to Pisco.  The bus stank, but was a real eye opener.  The pollution was disgusting and limited you to only being able to see about 150metres in front of you. The only thing the pollution didn´t ... Read more >
