Originally, today’s intention was to rest; however, we have the will and strength to continue with the acclimatisation and have therefore decided to set off to the Vallunaraju BC at 5686 m. We intend to climb up to the 4300 m BC today and tomorrow, at 3 AM, get up to go to the Vallunaraju and keep on climbing as much as we can; we do not have a particular height in mind, we just want to acclimatise.
After being at 3800 m. yesterday, today, following the aclimatation process, we have been at 4500 m. in the Churup lake. It is a beautiful place. The Churup mountain, at an atitude of 5495 m., gives his image to the lake and that one looks like a decorative accesory as appropiate. Both of them are places of special beauty.During the climbing, the normal sensation has occurred. The body refuses the effort that the head is offering.
Today we have been buying all these kind of things that it is better for us to purchase here because of the volume-weight relationship. We have been visiting Huaraz from our guest house “la casa de zarela”, an enchanting place in the suburbs of the town.
After a long trip of 12 hours, we arrived yesterday at Lima airport around 7.30 (7 hours plus in Spain).
Today we have been walking around Lima downtown, we met a colorful parade by surprise. Each of the groups that were in this parade was representing different tribes that took part during the independence of Peru. July the 28th is the National Party and these kind of eves are part of the previous days.
