Wasipunko lodge is a 20 minute drive from Nasca, but you are transported into a different world where it's very peaceful and the air feels clean.
Really lovely traditionally decorated bedroom. Very good insect screens which allowed me to leave my window open all night to get a gentle flow of air into the room.
Bed - comfortable but very soft
Pillow - fairly comfortable
Shower - hot water
Large towel provided.
WiFi is available if you sit by the reception. But I think it's the very thick walls of the rooms that blocks the WiFi elsewhere.
Dinner: I watched the pachamanka ceremony but couldn't fully understand it as there was no-one to explain in English.
But when the earth was shovelled away, there were banana leaves and beneath those was food that had been cooked on and in between hot stones.
Ears of corn, beans, comote (sweet potato), potatoes, cheese wrapped in leaves, chicken and pork.
It smelled and tasted delicious - but was much in need of some salad or a sauce as it was all 'heavy food'.
Breakfast was very good.
Bread rolls, jam, fruit, coffee, hot water, avocado.
Beautiful grounds and buildings. Lots of things to see here...
2 beautiful peacocks sit comfortably with the 2 dogs.
There are many different displays of pots and bones... really varied and interesting.
There are also many places to sit and relax in the gardens.
If you need a guide and/or driver, ask the waitress to contact José for you.
