Since my last post, we went back to Lima for a night to rest a little of our trek in the Andes. We stayed this time in the district of Barranco, seaside again. Even more beautiful and welcoming as other places where we stayed in Lima. It sest wanders all day among the colonial houses LENDROIT.
The next day we left for the south or in loas of Huacachina. Must say that the Peruvian coast is very lonely, but in general, it's more a desert of rock and dust. A Huacachina by cons, they are huge sand dunes out of sight. Really beautiful and surprising. We therefore arrive in this oasis with lintention make sandboarding in the dunes. To get the best dunes, we were brought into a sort of big "dune-buggy." Completely crazy as experience, I think the most pleasure cest that jai was in Peru til date. For sandboarding, most people decscendait layer on the board, but I do my thinking "Smatt" I like snowboarding for a long time, I decided to go there standing. Bad idea ... jai say more jusquen rolls down that something else, but thankfully without too much damage. Must say it might be better was if the board had not been literally a plank of 2x4 with two velcro strap to it ... but good for the future, because as jai and jai everyone slid on its belly and cétait fun in curses. The dunes had to almost 300m high ... AC descended quickly cursed.
The next day we went for a tour of wineries in the region. Yes, he makes wine in Peru and is pretty good as well. They also drink a lot dune quon called Pisco, such as rot-gut tequila. After tasting wine in 3 super nice, you start being a little messed up, especially since the Pisco yen had 3 kinds tasted every time ... Cétait're all really fun and the amount drank dalcool Quon, AC was well worth the $ 7 Quon pay.
We arrived during the night happening in the city dArequipa, secondly largest city of Peru. It is almost like in Spain 200 years ago here This is really a super nice city. Almost all colonial larchitecture has been maintained despite all the earthquakes that the city has known. In addition, she is flanked by three huge volcanoes in the background. We'll probably stay here a few days, there are a lot of stuff to do here, among other things, a trek in the Colca Canyon, deeper than the Grand Canyon, I think.
