Day 10: The Dunes

Slept in a bit this morning. Had breakfast in our garden oasis and then the kids went hiking.  Only Sydney made it all the way. The others made a good effort and got a bird's eye view of Huacachina. Did some shopping around the lagoon, and then back for lunch.
The weather today was amazing!!! Sun shining. Blue skies. Not a cloud out. Stark contrast from Lima. Think we only saw the sun 1 or 2 days.
Had a blast on the buggies this afternoon. We had a whole buggy to ourselves and got the young, crazy driver who took us on a wild ride!! What a blast!! Lots of the fun, smiles, laughs and lots of sand in our faces....and mouths!! Went to the top of a medium dune and then boarded down.  Some sitting up, some on their bellies. Good fun!! We then drove to a bigger hill and and they went down that too!! Sooo much fun....but sand everywhere!! Back to the hostel for shopping & showers, a BBQ dinner, UNO, Connect Four, and topped it all off with Oreo cheesecake & Chocolate cake!!
