... we did not see ! ...qu'on n'a pas bien vues !

The Nazca lines are the must-be-seen site in this desertic area. If you observe them from above, you will see many geometric forms, sometimes remembering animals. They were drawn a long time ago, and they are so huge that some people said that, as the pre-inca population could not see what they do from above, the lines have been made by E.T.s !!! For the moment, there is no official explanation about these lines. We will maybe watch them later, and we only went to a Miarador (not very high) to see... what is on the pictures (not much, hum ?)...

Les Lignes de Nazca constituent la principale attraction de cette region desertique. Observee d'en haut, on voit effectivement un enchainement de formes geometriques, rappelant parfois des animaux. Ces lignes ont ete tracees il y a bien longtemps, et parfois, des gens affirment qu'elles sont si grandes que, les populations pre-incas ne pouvant voir le resultat de leur travail d'au-dessus, elles sont forcement le fruit d'extra-terrestres ! Il n'y a pas d'explication officielle sur le sens de ces lignes. Nous, on les observera d'en haut peut-etre plus tard. En attendant, on les a regardees depuis un Mirador (pas tres haut) et voila ce que l'on pouvait voir (pas terrible, je sais... )
