Very cool, are you going to hit Nazca?
We aren't, we would've liked to but had to cut a few things. In all honesty I was pretty over hiking ruins by the time we left Peru 😂

 Yeah but you could have checked out "the lines" while sitting on your butt in a plane. :chuckle:
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

We must reject the idea that every time a law's broken, society is guilty rather than the lawbreaker. It is time to restore the American precept that each individual is accountable for his actions.

Drove with a few camps, down to Ushuaia. Walked with the penguins. Climbed to martial glacier. Headed north again.
