Nazca lines

Imagining Nazca lines I had “Signs” movie and gigantic field’s signs in my mind. With such an assumption I got on 5 seats airplane for a US$80 half an hour flight. Lonely Planet added their bit about 500 square meters of nearly 800 different lines, 300 geometric shapes and about 70 shapes of animals and plants.


They collected my details, checked my weight and put on board. Well, 5 seat airplane sounds cool. Minute after take-off I started to feel my organs moving all possible directions. I was really trying to focus on sights not to do what I felt was coming… I was looking and looking and I nearly missed first lines we were passing – they were really small and hard to notice, though it effectively made me forgot about state of my stomach for a while. Not for long though, as my flight companion girl sitting on my side was making use of this air sickness bag. That made me ask all superficial powers (Claire-Bear has few of them) for some strengths not to feel this specific smell and to make last night dinner where it belongs (we were advised not to have breakfast the day of flight).

To recap, lines didn’t make big impression. They aren’t big as I expected them to be, plus they’re spread on a huge desert what allowed pilots to play with our internal organs…. (There was a “tips are welcome” sign on their dashboard, I’m not too sure if they ever receive any though…).

Straight after we landed and left the airplane, a man in a white uniform kindly offered us a massage… I had to refuse though, as It most certainly wouldn’t be a moment of relax.
