We have been talking about this for a while... a whirlwind tour around South America. But somehow, year after year, something came along and it was not to be. And so it finally will become, precisely two days from now, we'll board an Air Canada flight to Lima, where it will all begin.
And it wasn't all easy coming. Left to our own devices, we'd probably have taken a leave of absence for several months from work just so that we can do it all. Patagonia? Ecuador and the Galapagos? Manaus and the heart of the Amazon? Easy it most certainly was not. We have three weeks, and we have to pack what we can in the time we have.
We could have our own version of the Motorcycle diaries. But motorcycle traveling this is not. We couldn't even squeeze in an Inca Trail (and after watching this, really, could we skip out on Lima?).
And so it begins, our own little Airplane diaries.
