RTW Day 6: ¡Adiós, Peru!

My last (free) breakfast in Peru was fried eggs, flat bread with jelly and butter, a huge bowl of fresh fruit, coffee, and O.J. Not too shabby.

I didn't waste time getting back to Cusco. A big part of me wanted to climb up to the ruins near Ollantaytambo, but I was still feeling ill. Not sure if maybe I got food poisoning or drank bad water, but it's definitely not the pills. Luckily the feeling quickly subsided during the day, other than a slight malaise I'll blame on overexertion at high altitude. Gotta work for the good stuff!
The bus back was full of French people who couldn't care less about me so I chose to read instead. Back in Cusco I had some time to kill. I went to the ChocoMuseo and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the place. Also, chemistry!

They had a workshop where you can make your own, but I did not have time. I bought a little bit for the road, stopped at a nearby pizzeria for lunch, and walked back to the airport.

Next stop: New York City.

    1. Look up Cuy al Horno if you want to see something that looks like roadkill. Or better yet, Cuy Chactado :)
