The family and I finally were able to take our trip to Paracas, so far it has been my favorite place to visit. I think this place was my favorite because Arjun and Sanj did not get sick and it was so relaxing. We stayed at the DoubleTree Hilton Resort which was absolutely beautiful! We were able to hang out around the pool and beach and spend time together as a family before Sanj started classes (which would be the following week). While we were in Paracas we took a boat ride to Isle Ballastas, it was incredible. It is this little island about 10-15 minutes away, it is only accessible by boat, with lots of birds, penguins and sea lions. As we were on the boat approaching the Isle we saw what had to of been thousands of birds, I was terrified. Those who know me know that I don't like birds at all, but it wasn't too bad and with that many birds someone was bound to get pooped on, luckily nobody did! We only saw two penguins and lots and lots of sea lions. It was a magnificent sight to see, there must of been thousands of sea lions along with their new born pups. Arjun did not see much of anything because he slept the whole time but the couple of minutes that he was awake he seemed to be enjoying the sight! Paracas was a great place to visit because it only took 3 hours to get there by bus or car, there is no airport there because it is so close to Lima. It was the first place that I had been where it is all desert surrounded by the ocean, it was beautiful. I think we will be going back at least a few more times before we leave Peru.
For Easter break the Marzett's came to Peru with Carter and Sacha, it was great to see them! We saw all the sites of Lima, ate at some new restaurants and enjoyed some tasty desserts. It is always fun having family come visit us, they bring a little piece of home with them. Arjun enjoyed the kids company because had people to play with, now that they are gone he only has us and its sad to say but he is bored! We can't wait to have the Marzettwala's back to visit us!
Here are some pictures of Paracas!
