E-banking in Belgium: efficient service but ... now on your

According to a study InternetVista, a company specializing in application monitoring Internet sites of Belgian e-banking have an excellent level of reliability for the consumer. However, banks should further improve their communication with users when a failure occurs.

Today, e-banking is entered in the daily lives of millions of Belgians who have left the window agency for the benefit of their computer screen to do their banking. But how reliable is these new services that the customer should ideally be able to see 24 hours 24?

To find out, InternetVista monitored during one month (from May 5 to June 5) applications of e-banking offered by fifteen Belgian banks to their customers. Every minute, a robot has visited each of the sites audited to check their availability and to detect possible failures or malfunctions.

Good performance, poor communication - conclusion: the best result was recorded at Fortis including e-banking displays an availability rate of 100%. Behind You can find particular Rabobank Keytrade, ING, Binck Bank, Delta Lloyd, Argenta and Deutsche Bank with a rate of 99.9%. On the other hand, has noticed some weaknesses InternetVista Axa (5 hours of downtime combined), the Banque de la Poste (3:00), Credit Agricole and Dexia (2 hours each) during the study period.
"Despite some shortcomings sometimes, applications of e-banking as we watched show overall good performance," said Cédric Braem, Managing Director of InternetVista. However, we found that the Belgian banks would greatly improve communication in case of failure: the user encountered a frustrating error message like "Error 503" or "internal server error" that only insiders can interpret. In this regard, the KBC is the only bank that takes special care by providing an error message understood by any client. "

De Nazca to Ecuador, the northern coast of Peru, from 18 to 1 July 2008

After our long stay in Cuzco, we took the road to join the Ecuador through northern Peru ... We'll leave the altiplano, after 3 months more of 3500 meters on average, to find the sea (or rather the Pacific Ocean) ...

A very long road that never ceases to rotate in any direction takes us to Nazca ... The steep descent (going from 4500 to 500 meters in 30 km) on the city allows us to admire the vegetation change, we now until Ecuador ride on the Pan American , which runs along one side completely deserted ...

Nazca is famous for its famous lines in the desert, lines and drawings of animals: some worship site illuminated alien. Nobody knows what they really mean and who exactly they were drawn ... What is certain is that they are visible only from heaven. So off I go, all alone, Alex refused to turn the cause of vertigo ... and I would probably do the same. This little escapade air in a 6-seater plane was really horrible to my heart (and my stomach), the " On the Right" and "On The Left " driver still echo in my head ...

We take a break to Ica, an oasis in the desert, then we arrive at the Paracas reserve. The scenery is beautiful and very different from what we had seen so far , large expanses of sand in shades of ocher, yellow, red. Luckily it's nice here because it is winter and during this period, the entire Peruvian coast is invaded by a pervasive mist ... We take this opportunity so we get stuck on one track (one last time hopefully). Again a huge 4 x 4 will come to our rescue ...!

Then head Lima, 300 km of coast, 300 km from mist and a little sad landscapes, the wilderness is overrun by garbage and fog ... We quickly found estacionamento one in the district of Miraflores , the chic of ville.On stay there 4 days, 4 days back on consumption, ultra-modern stores and international retailers. We now understand where are the few treasures of Peru. Miraflores is almost indecently rich oasis surrounded by neighborhoods and cities really very poor. What is most striking in Peru, is this abscence middle class or very (very) rich, or very (very) poor. The city, meanwhile, we were not markedly more than that ... especially with the fog and rain ...

We continue our climb to the friendly city of Trujillo . Colonial city located next to a beautiful site, Chan-Chan , capital of the Chimu civilization , and formerly largest city in the Adobe world, with over 60,000 inhabitants. The problem with clay is that after a few rains, the house collapsed. With El Nino and earthquake, there is not much ... so do as it says in the guide, you have to imagine ... but good fun as a visit even when it is necessary to imagine a destroyed city!

At the extreme northern Peru Finally we find the sun beside Mancora for our last camp overlooking the sea

Tomorrow we enter into Ecuador ... sniff our last border crossing ...

Cuzco, Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu .... (from June 6 to 17) from Cuzco

After nearly 10 months in South America ... Cuzco is, for us, the last major step in our journey before joining Ecuador. We elect

home for ten days at Quinta Lala camping, campsite well known European truck operators, in the hills of Cuzco. For the first time of travel we are entitled to a lawn, in normal times, it's more earth and dust. There are even chickens, ducks, a dog who becomes the best friend of Anthony and sometimes a herd of grazing llama coming here ... And there
and even those pesky Basques and Armelle Francis with whom we pass still good moments, surely the last sets (well, we hope to see you again for the 17th time since early in Ecuador!).

We leave Cuzco a week before the Inta Rami, the feast of Cuzco and the sun, the city is already very busy, we are witnessing daily parades colorful songs and dances ... a shame there not Attend and damage can not happen any more time with a large family of French fighters (3 children) as a camper arriving just, just a very nice little party ...

Cuzco is one of the most beautiful cities in South America. It was the largest city of the Inca empire, the "navel of the world " in Quechua (the language of the Incas, still spoken today), it has a beautiful Plaza de Armas, narrow streets paved , colonial buildings built on Inca foundations, a nice hill and its neighborhood San Blas by cons ... we sometimes forget that we are at over 3000 meters, the day he is easily 25 degrees in the sun but at night it freezes.

From Cuzco, we join the s Sacred Valley, the Valley of the Urubamba . We visit the impressive ruins of Pisac , Inca fortress perched atop a hill known for its magnificent terrace cultivation. Antoine has good idea to take a long nap and we comb to turn the citadel that protected the valley.

We reach then the beautiful Ollantaytambo also dominated by an imposing fortress, where the Inca Planning was well preserved despite the work of forgetting undertaken by the English. The Incas were masters in the art of stone cutting and the majority of the houses are still Inca foundations.

From here we take the train the next day to join Agua Calientes and Machu Pichu . The road does not actually further down the valley. To the delight of Perurail which sold out most of the year despite high prices, even if it is true that the site is not very accessible.
to arrive early and try to avoid as much as tourists, the alarm goes off at 4:30 (if) ... a little hard for Anthony, but he follows with a smile, the more tired they are finally mom and dad who were kind of struggling to keep pace with games in the middle of ... sleepy tourists

The Machu Picchu was already so having heard the name and photo, we always wondered before leaving if you do a v not be a little disappointed ...
Especially that part in the rain and it's been a long time we have not seen a raindrop, it must rain that day, (there I am a bit upset it's true). We arrive at 8 o'clock in the morning, so as strings of water and mist well with a present ... and our first glimpse of the temple is still a very striking,
Already the bus ride, which mark a trail that winds through the mountain, makes us understand the uniqueness of this site truly accessible. Inaccessible and really (really) beautiful. Photogenic and vertical. In addition
luck catching up with us, the sun suddenly appeared ... the play of light and clouds that come back and add to the magic of the place. The vision of this temple too mystical for that mythical Inca for tourists will remain a highlight of the trip. The site is in a beautiful natural landscape. Each side, cliffs, mountains peaks, the site is really down.

short, to late discovery (1911), the lack of knowledge that researchers have the temple and its true meaning for Incas, the reason for its abandonment and its incredible beauty, many reasons combine to make this site unique. We really liked.
Many travelers are disappointed and consider it too expensive and too touristy ... certainly a European tariff, but located in a very remote area and finally no more expensive than a concert ticket. And, rising a little earlier, we were rather surprised not to see more people.
And then we will not give lessons, between Versailles, Mont Saint Michel and the Eiffel Tower ... not a bad walkabout.

How To Get Cheats For Gpsphone On A Mac

Our First Steps in Peru: Arequipa and the Colca Canyon (from 31 May to 4 June)

Our first miles are Peru on the Altiplano along Lake Titicaca : we do not feel like leaving Bolivia ... the landscapes and people resemble
... Only the Peruvian police made us understand that the country has changed, 4 controls our first day and 2 attempted fines, for a customs document poorly written (by customs) and one for non- compliance with a signal off ... hope the rest of our stay will reduce the mean!

A long and beautiful road leads us to Arequipa, the second largest city, situated at 2700 meters. A bit like Sucre Bolivia in this city allows us to "breathe" a bit (because mine anything, it's been a while since we saw over 3500 meters ..) out of the thongs ( well almost) and T-Shirts ... Very nice town, another "White city" of South America to its beautiful Plaza de Armas, lined with colonial buildings (according to Alex " it will never be worth Sugar ...") . We

spend an afternoon visit to the beautiful Santa Catalina Monastery , real small town in the city, full of color, narrow streets, flowers everywhere, a very beautiful place. We resume the

road towards the Colca Canyon , the deepest canyon in the world (more than the Grand Canyon in the U.S.!). But this is not what really impressed us, but rather its terraces Incas, patchwork of color that form a beautiful set in the valley. It must be said that the state of the track does not put us in condition to enjoy the scenery their fair value. After 9 months of travel, the tracks it's still a bit tiring for everyone (including the Citroen!)
... But the very good thermal baths of Chivay us still remember the shock is still nice to be here!

And we start to reach Cuzco : we are so eager to be there (and especially to ask a few) that made the biggest day on the road since the beginning of our trip: 640 Kms track on the altiplano with start hallucinating at 4:30
... Thanks again for Magali's cartoons that we Antoine are a great help on these days!

And now a new factor comes into play for the organization of our days: the beginning of the euro, important appointment for Alex ...

De La Paz to Copacabana and Lago Titicaca: Bolivia Hasta luego ... (from May 21 to 30)

From again La Paz, we remain a long weekend, time to review, now is the tradition, François and Armelle, to meet other French travelers to stroll in city markets (and that's not missing, we sell everything and everywhere. ...) and discover on Sunday in La Paz on the Prado. It is a like platforms on Sunday in Paris, no cars and entertainment for children ... Well Anthony is more than happy and we also ...
La Paz, definitely a true blow of heart for the whole family.

the road again towards the very mythical Lake Titicaca . We make a detour to visit the ruins of Tiwanacu . These ruins of a pre-Inca civilization in the region of Lake Titicaca (which lasted much longer than the Inca civilization there ...) are very aptly named (in ruins), and are being renovated thanks to numerous archaeologists and workers, many more that visitors, who are themselves almost exclusively French ... (at least that day).

But the site is still interesting with the famous Gate of the Sun .

As often happens in Bolivia, the road to reach the Lake Titicaca on the altiplano, is beautiful and deserted. The move forced the motorhome by a ferry to spend a stretch of sea (lake) is rather amusing. The boat is local, very Bolivia, so at first glance not very reassuring level of security. There is barely room for the camper and a few passengers. The few eddies of the lake are bend and the boat pitching and Citroen ... premises surprised to see us play, obviously it's normal. We therefore concur
the small town of Copacabana only Bolivian beach, Chileans have taken by force to the Pacific access to these lucky few Bolivians in the 20th century.

After a small camp at the Lake, tasting its excellent trout and a small pedal boat ride to please Antony, towards the village of Yumapata which lies opposite the island of sun . This very nice fishing village offers the possibility of the cooperative to sailors to discover this island without going through a travel agency in Copacabana.
Here we are therefore on very charming, very beautiful, and very surprising Isla del Sol . According to legend the first Inca, Manco Capac , was born here with his wife at the foot of a cliff. It includes the veneration of the Incas to the landscape and respect for nature, seeing the sight of said rock, a sparkling lake from the burning sun, the Cordillera Real and peaks over 6000 meters in the background.
The northern island is magical ... with its sandy beaches and translucent water. Missing just 40 degrees at night and 20 at Lake to believe in Brazil (Copacabana?). In short we loved.

Back at camp, because here we go again to the western part of the lake, next to his Peruvian . We arrive at Pun o and decide to visit the famous floating islands , all islands of reeds ("totora"), Lake Titicaca. We were warned of the tourist side of the visit but not at this point ... Although interesting, the tour leaves a bitter taste ...

Here it is Bolivia is (already) finished. A month and a half went by very quickly and 3000 kilometers. To summarize arguably Bolivia is (very) nice but it is (very) high ...
