1) Leaving the coast and its surrounding desert terrain, we headed into the Andes.  2) They are the second largest mountain range in the world.  3) Afterwards, we drove south down the Pan-American Highway, which parallels the ocean.  4) We walked along one of its many sandy, uninhabited beaches, leaving behind a trail of footprints.  5) The cold sea was turbulent that day and its surf pounded the shore.  6) We didn't dare enter its waters.  7) The unpaved mountain roads were narrow and winding and filled with hairpin turns.  8) For hours we climbed higher and higher, until we reached the pampa, a wide desolate plain, from which we could see the whole valley. 9) We began our trip in Lima, Peru.
