In Arequipa

Lima - Arequipa: 1009 km, 16 hours on the bus, cost: 16 pounds. I didn't travel with the same company that from Trujillo to Lima as it was far too expensive. However, the cheaper bus I took was very comfortable too. We travelled through the desert again. Desert was everywhere (in the picture).
I got a bad cold or flu and I am feeling horrible. Again I thought: malaria? - and again I am lucky, just a flu.
From the bus station I took a taxi to my host's flat. Raul lives very close to the town centre, 5 minutes from Plaza de Armas which is a very nice place. Arequipa looks beautiful but today I am going to sleep all day to get better and I will do some visiting tomorrow.
