Another day when I had to get up early, but it was no problems - because I was going to experience one of the highlights on this trip, the Nasca lines - from the air!
Six of us went flying, only one ca back with a face not in a greenish colour.. - me!!
A bumpy 30 min flight in a small little Sessna was totally worth it. This is the only way to see these lines and I had to do it.
It was really cool. There are so many of them. There are many stories too, about how they got there etc. I bought a little info book, so I will read it and get more information, at least from that one source. True or not, it has to be my truth now.
After the flight we had some scheduled spare time which was great for all of those that didn't feel so well to have time to recover before we move on.
It was a good time for lunch and then chilling in a hammock under a mango tree.
In the afternoon we went to what must be the windiest place on earth, a place in the Nasca desert where they found tombs and lots of well kept bodies. They call them mummies even if they are not real mummies. They are not blamed and the still have their intestines.
It was a very interesting visit and the guide was very good.
After they grave yard we visited a pottery where a family makes ceramic pieces as the people did long long time ago.
Back at the hotel it was time for drinks and cake for a girl that had her birthday. On top of that we had dinner and then it was time to cross the street to the bus station. We were to board a night bus to Arequipa. We sat there waiting and waiting. The bus that should depart at 10.30 pm finally arrived and we left Nasca at midnight.
Just to make yourself comfortable and let the bus rock you to sleep.
