		<description><![CDATA[Gary Urton. The investigator from Harvard University reveals the latest results of his investigations of the meaning of the quipu.

As I explained in this previous post, the quipu (or khipu) is a fascinating communication device used in the pre-Columbian world for everything from accounting and record keeping to, it is believed, recording detailed text... names, words, a full written language not in symbols but in lengths of string and knots tied at points along them.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The oldest ship on the highest navigable lake in the world, the Yavarí floats on the waters of Titicaca as it has done for nearly 150 years.

Built in England in 1862, it comprises of 2,766 pieces that arrive in Arica - then southern Peru - to begin the long journey by hundreds of mules to Lake Titicaca to be reassembled.

The Yavarí was discovered in a state of disrepair over a decade ago by a British woman from a family with a maritime background named Meriel Larken. On learning the ship's history she founded The YAVARI Project and charity to restore it. Work is still under way but progressing.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We had taken a bus to Santiago from Lima which made crossing the border simple. On the return however, there was no such bus, at least for a few days anyway.

We were able to take a bus from Iquique to Arica easily and had a good journey. The 4 hours on the bus were interesting as we spent them watching hundreds of tornadoes sweeping through the distant desert. I tried to get them on camera but they just wouldn't turn out. The two photos attached to this entry are the best I could do, and I needed to turn up the contrast to get to see anything, but they still don't give a feeling for how it really looked.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We arrived in Santiago de Chile after spending a length of time on a bus that I had never before imagined was possible and be honest - it was fine. I spent probably half the time staring out of the window at the bleak desert half asleep and the other half watching the dozen onboard movies.

Caracol turned out to be more of an agency than a bus service and we ended up travelling with the excellent Chilean company Tas-Choapa - it seems all the buses in Chile are excellent.]]></description>
