Tulku was bitten

So we found an excuse to sit at home and watch football all day long… Last week Tulku was bitten by a big dog and had a surgery. It’s not really healing well, because Tulku keeps on trying to take out the stiches, so she had another surgery today and was prescribed to wear pants in order to heal better. They didn’t have just pants in the market, so now we have a baby dog.

Day 279

Day 279, 6535km, Nazca! So here we are, just around the corner the mysteriuos Nazca lines. They say we can still see them after 2000 years, because the climate here is so dry and windless. It doesn’t explain why we had rain for last 2 days and near-hurricane winds as well…

Dialog…

From time to time we make a brake from biking and check our map and have these wonderful dialogs afterwards. They are more or less the same and change with the scenery.

In mountains of Bolivia:
K: where do we go now?
S: up
K: for how long?
S: 23km and then 5km down
K: and then?
S: up again, for next 17km

In altiplano in Bolivia:
K: where do we go now?
S: 65km flat and straight!
S (5km later): why are you crying?
K: it’s boring
S: but it’s flat and straight! And FLAT!
K: and boring ;(

At peruvian coast:
S: how long do we go up for?
K: 3km
S: and then?
K: down, for 4km
S: and then?
K: up again.
S: (sighs)
