Trains Planes and Automobiles

After the excursions of the last few days, we based ourselves in a Eco Hotel in the Peruvian cloud forest, not far from Macchu Pichu. We chilled out chasing photos of humming birds, learning about the sexual life of orchids and the medical properties of herbs and partaking of first class Peruvian hospitality.

We did not meet any of Paddingtons ancestors, nor were we ravaged by mosquitos, so we arrived back in Lima in good order.

The sea level terrain restored my metabolism almost instantaneously and Maxine summarised our holiday thus:

• 9 flights
• 2 train journeys
• numerous cab rides
• 5 hotel rooms
• 2 bottles of win (some mistake shurey?....ed)
• 2 pints of London Pride (Brazil prices)
• 1 fab wedding and

and we tried to drink Brazil dry of Brahma!

Sounds a good summary to me. 15 more hours in the air and we should be home!!
