Hello from the beach!!! :)
First of all we´re sorry we´ve been so slow at updating but we´ve had such a busy and amazing week and no time to stop!!
We´re now in the very north of Peru at a beach town called Mancora and we´ve worked out that since landing in South America we´ve racked up 144 hours in a coach (that´s almost a whole week!).
Last week was amazing. After Puno we travelled to Cusco and visited Machu Picchu...it´s difficult to describe the experience, it was incredible, i´m sure the pictures will show you. We had our first taste of real rain since leaving the UK too! We then moved on to Lima and stayed with a friend of Maria´s called Cecilia who treated us like princesses :) We had all the luxuries that we´re missing...hot showers, clean toilets, nice food haha...
We also had so much fun and even managed to get a whole bar singing at a karaoke!
Lima was amazing especially as we had our own tour guide although the driving was once again an experience...in fact maybe worse than anywhere else we´ve been...we can only describe as being like real life mario kart, you just hjave to hold on :)
We then went to a town called Trujillo where we stayed with a friend we´d met earlier on in Puno and were looked after well again and now we´re finally in Mancora, a surfer town and staying right next to the beach :) Lucky us.
We have lots of photos to put up but need to find a good internet cafe to do so so keep checking.
Hope everything is well back home and we´ll update again when we´re in Ecuador. Only a few more days left in South America now before we fly to Central America...it´s going so quickly. Thankyou for all of your messages, we will reply as soon as we can.
Lots of love
Nikki and Maria xxxxxxxxxxxxx
