Well it is day four and as you can see there are plenty of internet connections to feed my sad addiction to twitter and blogging in the hostels we are staying at. Daniel the guy we just met from San Fran last night is still kicking it with us after a day out in Paracas which is near Pisco and pretty much why we are here.

Paracas is a nature reserve and coastal region near Pisco that we visited today. It was kind of dissapointing wild life wise. Penguins and Sea Lions are not exactly exclusive to Peru. While we didn´t see anything we hadn´t seen back in Europe,  the terrain was amazing. As my photos will show later the mountains and desert scenary are just stunning.

It was a decent day out and if you can spare the day before the Nazca lines then its worth the stop off just to soak up the terrain alone. The people are really nice and as we have experienced everywhere (except the airport taxi drivers of course). But Pisco is no major stop off  and we are getting out of here now.

Rob is now running around trying to sort out his missing passport and travellers cheques as it finally sets in that they are gone and he will not be seeing that red booklet any time soon.

Daniel and I have crashed and burnt with desert sickness like true city boys after inhaling a tonne of desert dust. Sneezing and snotting like little boys with heavy colds on the sofas of the lounge of the hostel looking “real war ready”! lol!

I think Daniel will be leaving us tonight it has been good to meet him and thats the fun of traveling, the meeting randoms and making new friends for the short or long haul. We are off to the Police station to make out a Police report for Robby the Rob then its off to Nazca to see the Lines.
