The small group went out to the sun light. The heavy red suits made us look like astronauts going to a rocket, but we were just a few tourists ready to meet orcas in their environment.

Wild & Crazy Time in Peru but a bit too touristy for me!!

 Yeah so I'm a little behind in my blogging but is there a time limit to blog about travelling?? Anyway Thomas my French buddy and I got to Lima, Peru by taking a 26 hr bus ride from Guayaquil., Ecuador as he had been there for 4 months before going to Ecuador. On the bus we met a Chilean guy who told us we could stay at his friend´s home.
