Nasca April 24th



Naca April 24th

A German lady came to Nasca in the early 20th Century to explore the heritage of the Nascian people. After 50 years of research she descovered most of what is currently accepted as doctorine today.

Touring 2000 feet above the desert you can see the empression in shapes of animals such as a Condor, a humming bird, a dog, a whale, a monkey, there is even a tree, a space man and various trapizods. Some of the impressions believed to be created by the Nazca (a theory supported by the potterys simular designs) are a meter deep and multimeters wide. Seen from above is truley impressive.



Som,e beleve that the Nascians used ballons to view there workmanship. I would have rather gone up to see the line in a ballon as I took my sickness pill too late and began to get nasiated from the 90 degree bank tunrs while looking through my camera view finder. I didn´t puke and fortunatly only one of our group did though many had the ¨URGE¨




The town of Nasca has some descent local food but over all the hotel was the prefered spot as it had a pool and was right across from the air strip.
