Feliz Ano Neuvo - Happy New Year everyone.
I hope you all had good ones and saw the new year in, in style. Ours was brilliant the whole of Cusco descended into the main square and when midnight hit, everyone just goes wild and runs around the plaza and sets of fireworks anywhere and everywhere, it was crazy but fun. We then danced and drank the night/ morning away at a party in the restaurant which was mucho fun.
New years day night we caught an overnight bus to a town called Huacachina back over towards the Lima side of Peru. Its a tiny town built around an oasis at the bottom of huge sand dunes - it really was quite a strange place but it was brilliant as we got to do some sand baording and sand buggying which were fab. We also did a tour of a winery / pisco producer and i am not sure i have ever or will ever drink so much wine and Pisco (40% alcohol) before 11 o clock in the morning again, we had a lot of free samples and giggled the whole way home.
The bus ride back to Cuzco was hideous and took 18 hours - not much fun but we eventually made it.
We are back at our placements again after New Year and are now on count down for the next 2 weeks until we finish. We will be very sad to leave all the kids we work with everyday but on also are looking forward to new adventures. xx
