nazca lines

after simon clutch fixed too late to get all way to nazca so we stayed at an oasis. literally. huanchica is a desert oasis turned vacation spot. surrounding are huge dunes for sandboarding and dunebuggy....hotel had these huge green ones... made me wish i still had mine and with me right now...

the hotel had a few parrots...big blue-yellow loved attention but not mine... tried to pick him up and he bit me hard. green one crazy bird.got up next day and went to nazca to see the lines in the desert. let down. dont know exact history but there are a few views from aliens to ancient incan to my skeptic opinion of somebody bored living in the desert nothing to do....had an idea that went alot further than they probably ever thought would.

ride there was more desert with some sand mountains..... from distance looked like they were from a movie set so faint and blended into the horizon..... in them and they still didnt look real
most people take a plane to check all lines out but i had been told by a few that did it... wasnt worth it. theres a lookout view from teh road where you can see two of them.....after doing that the plane was a definate no go. the lines are about 6inch wide and just look like somebody picked up the rocks and used a shovel to scrape down a few inches....the mindboggling thing is how do they stay there without being sandblown covered up or scratched in new lines etc....think have to be relatively new and "discoverer"= maker? tey are geographically lined up with stars in tune with astrology. chart below shows whats what. the two i saw tauras/gemini...hand/tree
