Nazca - where the famous Nazca lines are

We came to Nazca by a bus ride from Arequipa. The area where the hotel was located, looked pretty bad, almost outside the town after a large slum area. But the hotel seems alright. We were there only for a day and the whole idea is to fly through in a scenic flight to see the Nazca lines. It was a bit pricy but we all decided to do that as there was no other way of seeing the Nazca lines. The Nazca Lines are a series of geoglyphs located in the Nazca Desert, a high arid plateau that stretches more than 80 kilometres (50 mi) between the towns of Nazca and Palpa on the Pampas de Jumana in Peru. Although some local geoglyphs resemble Paracas motifs, these are largely believed to have been created by the Nazca culture between 200 BCE and 700 CE. There are hundreds of individual figures, ranging in complexity from simple lines to stylized hummingbirds, spiders, monkeys, fish, sharks or orcas, llamas, and lizards. I got a picture of the monkey while flying but the plane was way too bumpy for taking pictures. We all felt sick due to the bumpiness but we all survived fine without throwing up. I have taken helicopter and scenic flight rides before and they are never pleasant as they are so small and bumpy but I did it again, probably I won't do it again anywhere else. But then, I think I said that before also. My sister says why do you pay for a ride that makes you feel sick. Her point is valid but then you could not see some amazing stuff otherwise!
