Home sweet home in the tent!

Back to the sea level! After spending months in high altitude, we finally arrived to the ocean. It’s winter here, but still warm enough – we’re in desert after all.

5932km, safe and sound in Arequipa! As we left Puno, we had a plan to reach Arequipa (300km) in 4-5 days. Well, vulcano Pichu Pichu had other plans – it erupted and messed up the winds for us, so it took longer to get here. Oh, by the way – we crossed our highest past so far 4528m asl and had our coldest night in the tent -18C!

Time for the next quiz! As we were in Bolivia, all fruit that we could find were potatoes, and if we were lucky – some onions. So as we finally reached Puno -Peru – we agreed that we should eat more fruit. So, Kira was sent to supermarket (another thing we haven’t seen since Argentina) to buy some. There were two huge shelves full with fruit. Kira could identify two sorts of them – banana and pineapple. But what is the rest?! If you need a closer look, you’ll find them in the album ‘fruits’. The prize for the winner is a video message from Peru!
