Believe it or not I was spot on about how long it took us to get to the airport. Lima is the most crowded place on earth. It took us 2 hours to drive 250 KM, and 4 hours to drive the last 3 miles. We, therefore, missed our flight, and get to leave tomorrow. Our friends from CT could have ridden their bikes here and beat us to Iquitos. The only picture I could post would be with steam coming from my cabeza. Well, so far today (Tuesday) we have not gotten lost anywhere, which is amazing, but also tempered by the fact that we don't have a car and haven't had to drive anywhere either. Off to the land of giant spiders, piranhas, and assorted creatures that go bump in the night.

The Reed Islands

We didn't miss our flight! Flew to Puno today, a 12,000' city that is home to Lake Titicaca (no laughing, juveniles). The lake is home to the Reed Islands, a series of 90 small islands literally made of reeds. There are about 50 people per island and, not surprisingly, their lives are pretty simple--making crafts, fishing, making tourists look like idiots, etc. When we returned, we were greeted by our hosts, Al and his wife Paca. Tonight is our last night in Peru, then off to Ecuador to see a variety of prehistoric creatures.🤢🐦🐸🦎🦋🕷🦂
