Kate and Kylie are not in at the moment as they are travelling across the continent of South America from Rio to Lima and will not be home until April 17th 2006. If you would like to leave a message after the beep, by all means do so, but they probably won't get back to you shortly. Have a nice day!

nasca

hello all. i am back at the kyboard (dodgy as it may be) for what could be close to the penultimate blog. have been a little lax lately, what with the digestive issues and all ensuing over the last week, and with the recuperation from the stressful inca trail, and have et my blogging duties slip. so we are now in pisco, the last stop before lima (the last stop). tomorrow we go briefly to some island known as the poor mans gallapagos. yesterday we took a cesna pane flight over the nasca lines... clearings int eh dirt in the shape of animals, lines, triangles... that were placed there in 400 odd BC. pretty cool. plane wwas little scary, but i managed. kylie actually becae a little sick from the way he plane was thrown n the wind and thermal currents. could not have seen the lines satisfactorily otherwise. nothing else to do in nasca. at night i chose to sleep... kylie partied on and can tell you all the stories whn she sees you... suffice to say her finger is swollen and purple and she is not quite sure why. today we dorve towards pisco and had some unexpected adventure at some oasis in the sand dunes. we went dune buggying and sand boarding. the boarding was fun, although harder than snowboardig and a mouth full of sand aint grand, but the buggying was the best. up. down. left. right. fast. steep. good stuff. well thats abut all. we have 2 full days to kill in lima before the flight home, so maybe somehig intersting will happen that we can blog. otherwise... get back to work!!! love you all. see you soon. christopher i am waiting for you onjline ... get bak from lunch!! love kate.

G'day amigos
Those photos in the last blog are fantastic, they certainly fill me in on the terrain and the scale of this kontinental krossing. Gee what a trip. I'm really proud of you're achievements. Glad that you are getting over the digestive matters Kate, I can imagine that they would dampen the enthusiasm of anyone.....even an intrepid young traveller like yourself. Kylie's enthusiasm for a good night out certainly doesn't appear to be lacking enthusiasm. Good on you Kylie. That buggying in the dunes sounds scarey, I can just imagine you two belting through the dunes having a real buzz.Well not long to go now, enjoy the last few days of the trip. Love Eman
