Peru

25th May. It has been a while since we have had access to a computer so the different experiences may have merged together a bit, but here goes.

Back from the island to Puno on the slowest boat ever built. This place is on the cool side, but lots of activity in the main streets. Our hotel room has a tapestry from the Uros Islands that is very similar to the one given to us by Rebecca.

26th May Bus to Cusco took a long, long, long, long, long, long time and we stopped half way in the middle of nowhere for something to do. The toilet ther was supervised by a woman whose sole job was to manually flush the bowl after each visit. All this, with snow and very little oxygen at more than 4,000 masl. When we finally arrived at Cusco we were pleasantly surprised. A very picturesque city with inca walls supporting those rotten spanish buildings.
