Cycle2Cusco

After visiting Machu Picchu and a long busride to Nazca (15 hrs single trip) to view the Nazca lines it is time to go home again.

Today we visited El Tatio geysers at 4300 m above sea level. It is impressive how boiling water escapes from the surface. In our way back home we stopped for taking some foto’s from flamingos.

After an unusual breakfast “Sachertorte”, and some arrangements for the excursion tomorrow I cycled with Heidy in the valley of the devil. Most other valleys are closed due to internal troubles between locals. As if the devil was here to throw a spanner in the works, Heidy did not remember the code correctly so we had to break the lock. Glad I had my tools with me. Those who wonder why I went cycling with somebody else … Fabienne told me that she would not come to San Pedro de Atacama and that she will cycle alone.

San Pedro de Atacama
After two hours bus through the desert I arrive in San Pedro. Fabienne will follow tomorrow, she wanted to chill a little bit longer in calama. I washed some of my clothes went for lunch to the small city and had a nice icecream in the evening. People here are still excited fir the new year to start but in the end it is just another next day. Cheers and a happy 2022.
