9th Aug
I got up at 6am and caught a táxi to paraccas which is where the islã del ballestas are. Supposedly it is the poor mans Galapagos islands. Well this man is very poor! We were taken out on a speed boat to the islands. The number of birds were pretty amazing to be fair and I was pretty surprised now to be pooed on. This guy nick I went with got pooed on twice. Pretty lucky you could say. We also got to see penguins, sea lions, fish and dolphins. It was a pretty cool little trip, well worth the effort.In the afternoon the sun was so lovely and hot so I sat in my bikini by the pool, had a salad for lunch hoping and praying it wouldn't give me parasites like mike had. In the afternoon I went sand boarding and we were taken on a sand buggy which has to be the most exciting thing in the world. Pure adrenaline rush! We sandboarded down some scarily high sand dunes and on the 3rd one I managed to stay standing up the whole way down which led to me crashing at the bottom and giving myself a black eye. It was so unattractive!I had the usual bbq for dinnert and ended up playing cards with a couple of lads from the hostel. It was a pretty drunken night with me ending up being chucked into the pool fully clothed at 2am in the morning. We even held our own version of the Olympic games in the pool. It all seemed pretty fun until I woke up in the morning and had to travel with a bag full of soaking wet clothes!
