For 22 hours I called This Bus ´Home´
Lima to Cuzco, overnight 22 hours. You aren´t allowed to poo on the bus, only urinate, as the stewardesses reminded everyone every couple of hours.
On that subject, I am still suffering from my stomach infection/food poisoning whatever it is I have. Its been about 9 or 10 days now and a real pain in the ass, literally. I saw a doctor yesterday who prescribed me some pills and a special diet, which involved consuming nothing but apple juice for 12 hours. This is tantamount to torture in Argentina, land of GIANT steaks and all food portions in general. Just about to have my first meal, plain rice. Can´t wait.
Some cool rocks at the top of Waynapicchu
Waynapicchu being the bigger mountain (hence the name) that overlooks Macchu Picchu. Only 400 people per day are allowed entry to it, we had to get up at 5am to get into the first 400 that day
