Paracas

 Drove down to Paracas to see the Ballestas Islands and the massive nature reserve. It is drop dead gorgeous, and the boat ride was only about 50% as terrifying as my mom thinks it is. We saw pelicans, penguins, cormorants, and sea lions, and sprawling desert dunes and surreal rock formations. It’s one of those ridiculous landscapes that doesn’t look real even when you’re there.

Tomorrow is another early day: 5:30 am wake up to fly to Cuzco.

in the meantime, a partial solution to my photo issue: here are some from the last two days. Click here.

Reminded me of the first time I saw Roman fascina in an exhibit of artifacts from Pompeii
