Dear Mum and Dad,
Well, here I am in Peru on our South American tour. We got to Lima five days ago. We had a good journey. It took three days by bus, but we saw a lot of things on the way. We didn`t do much for the first two days, as some of the girls were ill. We spent most of time on the beach. On Wednesday we came up to the mountains and while we were doing some sightseeing it rained heavily so we couldn`t take a lot of photos. Yesterday, we went to the old Inca City of Machu Picchu. It was fantastic. Hope you `re well.
