Paracas Peru

On our 5th day in Lima Peru we left to drive south to Paracas.  A small town on the Pacific Ocean.  Arvilla had rented apartment/condo on the ocean just north of Paracas.  Really nice with a balcony over looking the water.  We ate out in a little pizza restaurant in Paracas.  Excellent pizza and It had Wifi, critical since our apt doesn't have it.  Yesterday we took a speed boat ride out to Ballestas Islands to a protected Marine Reserve.  The day was sunny and we got see lots of Marine life Including lots of Humbolt Penguins  S A Sea Lions, and the blue footed Boobie Birds.  I took some great pictures but won't be able to post them until I get to a good wifi.  I am using my cell phone with an Internarional Plan and going blind typing this.  In the afternoon we went another national park.  Totally bare mountains made up of iron ore with a thin topping of sand shore of the Pacific Ocean.  Betsy and Sophie got sick.  So today I am staying in the apartment taking care of them.  Betsy really felt terrible and it could be a gallbladder problem.  No doc in a box around here but we did get some meds from a little shop.  She is feeling better after 3 pills.  Picts will come later.
