White Islands boat tour
Started with breakfast at the hotel, where we had cold eggs and hot milk. The food here is definitely different than what we are used to. Then a two-minute ride to the dock for our boat tour to Balestra Island.
But the seas by that island were too rough, so instead we went to the White Islands. These are named the White Islands because they're covered in bird poop, so kind of disgusting and interesting at the same time. There were a lot of different kind of birds there and neat little sea cave we went partially into. On the way there and back we saw a lot of sea lions. Unlike in the Galapogos, these sea lions were in the water, actually moving, not acting like bum sleeping all over town. On the way we also saw the Candelabra geoglyph, which was pretty cool. It was a quick tour.
Then we got back on the bus for another 4 hour ride, this time to Nazca. We got to Nazca and Jose met us. He's a young guy who speaks very good English and really seems to know his stuff. He's the best representative we've had so far on this trip. He got us to the hotel in time for dinner, and after last night's food adventure, we decided to just eat at the hotel restaurant. Despite the waiter really not speaking English very well, we actually had a really good meal, sitting out by the small pool. We then went to our room and relaxed before bed. Tomorrow we see the Nazca lines.
