Sandboarding the Dunes of Huacachina
A short distance from Ica where we were staying lies the small desert town of Huacachina. I am not exaggerating when I say small, that is quite literally the entire town you see laid out below you. As resort towns go, it is mostly aimed at backpackers and mostly for one type of activity
Sandboarding. Like snowboarding, but hotter.
We all piled into the dunebuggy, Aytch offering to drive and kindly being declined and set off for the surrounding hills
Then we grabbed our boards, waxed up the underside and set off on an awesome few hours of sandboarding
Wheeeeeee!
A very good day indeed

wow, looks like a good way to be scratching sand out of… everywhere for 6 days.
Who knew Peru had deserts too… I knew about the mountains, jungles and ocean…
Wow, I don’t know about sandboarding but the view of the desert is overwhelming! Nice jump
