And we are back in Cusco for a day before heading to Bolivia.After a good flight back to Cuzco (although it was delayed) we were met by the driver from our Hostel and quickly taken to the taxi. Here is where it got wierd. He left us to wait for other people whose plane had been delayed and was supposed to arrive about an hour before ours but still hadn't arrived. After 20 minutes of constantly watching people Phil got out and the driver got us someone else...

For some reason we were put on the 6.50pm train with Lisa and Geoff getting us back to Cuzco at 10.30pm (our only complaint with Llama Path really as they didnt advise this before and both us and Lisa and Geoff had early flights) we arrived back at Ninos Hotel.Back in the hotel, no problems with our room or getting our bags and we laid everything out to dry as best it could. A lovely warm shower and I think we both felt human again. Into bed and I think we both...

Stopped for the obligatory breakfast and last minute goodies and it was onto km ...

Due to the protesting and the attack on the airport at Juliaca which killed 5 people only two days ago they have stopped any flights which divert there.Unfortunately for Phil this meant the nap he was hoping to get was a lot shorter than planned.The airport at Cuzco. . wow. . I don´t think I have come across anywhere where the tourist agents are so full on. ...

After a nice tea at Crepissimo's on arrival back to Arequipa I found a lovely Peruvian wine. The Tabernero was possibly the nicest Peruvian wine I have found so far. Crepissimo has so many different crepes all with different fillings ranging from the simple (ham) to quite lovely dessert crepes, although Phil's crepe suzette was ordinary my berry and icecream one was yummy.A late start to the next day we whiled the morning away at the Hotel, before doing...
