Peru

Miss him 

Three course meal

First step into the city 

I've been waiting months to be able to post but I am finally here. It's been a long day but now am finally laying down with my new alpaca blanket with a slight altitude headache but loving it. Our first class flight was quite awesome and I'm pretty sure I'll never be able to fly economy ever again. We had fancy meals and champagne as long as we wanted. We were able to lay flat and had our own TVs. I watched Big Bang theory and some other shows which helped pass the time. When we got in we had to go through immigration which even In the middle of the night took a long time to get through. We then had to track down our bags, but I put bright orange hunter tape on them which made it easier to see. We had a driver to pick us up as planned and we got to the hotel at about 130 in the morning. The lady at the front desk tried to charge us for two nights because we checked in late, but managed to get it fixed in Spanish. We slept for a couple hours and then went right back to the airport to leave to Cusco. Lima by the way is a pretty gross city, so getting to cusco was much nicer. Our flight for that was delayed over an hour and at one point I had fallen asleep and was jolted awake and was convinced we had landed but we hadn't even left yet.                                                 It was a beautiful flight because we flew right through the Andes. For those who know me you'll appreciate hearing the fails I've had already including spilling my champagne all over me and the flight attendant, not knowing how to grab bread in the right way in first class, getting all excited that I had more money in my account than I thought and then realizing it was in soles.. And a few others I can't think of. I was called beautiful by a crazy looking old man which was funny. Claire and I have already bought several items most of which include some sort of alpaca. I got an alpaca blanket and jacket and some other things. We got empanadas and some tasty deserts from a cafe which was delicious. I'm not used to the smells of the city. There is so much food out in the streets that I wouldn't eat but smell so bad. There are also dogs everywhere. I did what I told myself I wouldn't do and pet one who was super sweet and rolled into his back. He just wanted a pat. I think I feel the altitude a little with a headache but not enough to stop me. We fell asleep at 5 this evening and woke up an hour later to it completely dark outside. I didn't even think about it being dark earlier because of it being winter. It's also pretty cold. For dinner we had chicken and French fries.      We are now just getting ready for bed in our decent hippiesh hostel. Tomorrow we head for moras and moray. Will post pictures if i can. 

Every souvenir is alpaca
