Mmmmmmmmm Chilli............
So its been a couple of weeks!! Ive been a bit lazy =L Sorry!! Well I spent another day in Cuzco after I last wrote just seeing a bit more of the town. Then I jumped on a 24 hr bus ride to Lima! Lima is the capital of Peru and really big and quite western, so I really just chilled out there for a few days, ate lots of fast food, drank lots of starbucks and saw a few movies. It was nice for a change =)
I stayed the night in Lima airport waiting for my early flight to Mexico. 3 flights later I arrived in Monterrey and met up with Anna! It was really lovely to see her again =) We spent the next couple of days getting organised and checking out Monterrey. Its a nice city but also very western.
Last Monday we jumped on an overnight bus to Guanojuato, a colonial town in Central Mexico. We chilled out there for a couple of days and while we were there checked out Diago Riveras house where he grew up and housed some of his works. Very cool.
We left for Mexico City Wednesday night and arrived late at night. Mexico City is crazy!!! Its HUGE and there are SO many people there. Its a nice place though. We checked out the biggest church in latin america there, an ancient aztec ruin in the middle of town and Frida Kahlos house. We also bumped into some naked men on the street protesting (see pic above). We took a day trip out to some ancient pyramids too which was cool.
We hopped on a bus to Puerto Escondido (where we are now) Sat night and arrived here Sun night. Its a really small town set on a few beautiful beaches and really amazing. Today we lay on the beach and took a banana boat out on the water and saw some gorgeous huge turtles and manta rays that were jumping. Ah its so nice to be at the beach again =)
