First Couple Days in Cusco
Cusco was fun the first day I had got a wift of the high altitude and I was going through it. First thing I bought was some coco leaves which they were okay I still have a bag left that I have to finish. Saw a famous cathedral which was cool. Saw a picture of Saint Francis which was remarkable to me because I went to his school in junior high school. After spending hours the first day getting used to the altitude we went out to eat and ordered a pepperoni pizza which was good it was the first pepperoni pizza since I went abroad. The closest thing to pepperonni was ham. after that we went out to a club. I made a mistake and pre gamed with some cheap vodka next thing I know I had a stomach ache at the club so you know I wasn't happy at all.... The next day we had a free day so we did some shopping. Overall I thought I did good that day shopping picked up some good stuff. Went to a restaurant and ate some chicken on screwers which was good. One thing I noticed about Cusco is the amount of street vendors and the kids and people coming up to you asking you to buy something. One guy kept calling Jay-Z or 50 cent I suppose because I'm black cause I look nothing like them. I also noticed how the kids had llamas and alpacas as pets and walked around with them. If you took a picture holding their llama you had to give them a couple coins which wasn't bad. I though Cusco was more how I pictured South America being less developed than the bigger cities. If you want to see more pictures look on my album Inca Empire Captial on my Facebook page.
