Cuzco

I finally got to sleep in this morning which wasn’t saying much considering that I woke up at 7 a.m. Had a quick breakfast and then headed down to the Centro Market just down the street from the hotel. The market resembled a flea market (indoor) that sold lots of souvenir items like flutes, t-shirts, bracelets and necklaces. I bought a few more hats for the peeps at home and then headed back to the hotel for a quick nap. We (Emma, Kate, Laura, Lily and I) headed up to the Plaza de Armas for some lunch. We ended up eating at a small place called Victor Victoria. For 7 sols each we ended up getting the set menu which included an appetizer, soup, rice and chicken and lemonade. It was a pretty good value considering I was spending easily 30 to 40 sols on meals. After lunch the girls wanted to go back to the Market and to the train station. I bought a few more trinkets and walked around with them for a bit. Soon after I headed back to the hotel and got ready for dinner.

We found a pretty good Italian/Peruvian place that had exactly the same food as the Incan Grill. I had a chicken risotto with elderberry sauce. It was excellent. I ordered some Pisco Sours and ended up drinking with some the group afterwards. We found a pub and stayed out to about 2 a.m. It was the last night with all of them so what better way to celebrate than with a few beers. Sure am going to miss them all after the Peru trip is over.
