You're right - to people like me the continent only means Copacabana or Ipanema.
Where's the highest city in the world and was it in Peru that the wreckage
of a British airliner which crashed in 1947 was revealed in recent years?
(the movement and melting of an Andes glacier at last showed up what had disappeared without trace despite many searches at the time - and ironically the incident contributed to modern aircraft navigation safety as much was subsequently researched about the JetStream at high altitude)
