Essence of
Local Kids, Reed Islands, Peru
The Andes
Lima To Santiago
Peru, Bolivia, Chile
From a beach camp at Puerto
Inca on the Peruvian coast, climb
high into the towering Andes at
Arequipa, cross the Altiplano next to soaring
condors and descend to the Indian village of San
Pedro encircled by volcanoes. Along the way,
discover the essence of the continent: the Inca
heartland around Cusco, the mysterious Nazca
Lines, the shimmering salt lakes on the Bolivian-
Chilean border and the star-studded night skies
above the deserts of Chile.
