Nazca

In the middle of the desert some people made some drawings Art Attack style in the rocks. These are very important to some other people, more recently who believe they were made by Aliens. Or maybe it's they were made for aliens. The guy who worked at the weird tower we went to view them from, who had been fully asleep seconds before explained the shapes. We were right by the "hands," "tree" and "the lizard". Some Americans had built a road through the Lizard. Whoops. It's not like it wasn't visible. The longest was about 100m long formed simply from a trench, which is now only about 5cm deep.

These aliens were very busy. A level headed documentry i saw once attributed the lines to worship of some water gods who lived in the mountains. Flip did they need them. The place is a as dry as the Gobi desert. Interesting place, but as is a bit typical our interactions with the sleepy guide were a bit more fun than the lines themselves.
