Travel Plans!

As of Friday, I am no longer a volunteer! Now a gringo traveller. Hrm.
Plan Summary:
I´m travelling with Fiona (another ex-volunteer fromt´ jungle) round South America until my flight home on the 28th of July.
We´re starting tonight, with a night bus to Puno in Southern Peru. From there, we´ll see Lake Titicaca, before heading across into Bolivia a couple of days later. 
We should spend a good couple of weeks in Bolivia, as it´s nice and cheap! Starting in Cocacabana, we´ll work our way south to the capital, La Paz. From there, we´re going to the salt plains- four days worth should bring us to Argentina.
Not overly sure what we´re doing there yet! If we have the time and money, it´s off to Buenos Aires. Perhaps not.
Then back West on a bus to Santiago, and time to see Northern Chile.
From there, we continue up the coast back into Peru- meeting other volunteers in Arequipa, and spending as much time as we have left seeing the sights of the coast (including numerous beaches) before returning to Lima for flights home.
Arg!

A fairly damn good start to the travelling last night- sitting in a balcony off the Plaza, watching fireworks launched from Sacsaywaman (a national Park hundreds of metres up above Cusco)- combined with a fairly decent concert (they put up a temporary stage in front of the Cathedral) and toffee apples, and it wasn´t half bad!
