We left cusco on a tour bus to Puno. It was going to stop at 4 places on the 300km drive to cusco. We stopped at church in a village, but both of opted out of going in and looked round the main plaza and tat stalls. Next stop was a inca ruin of a town, which was quite cool, lots of peasent women tend sheep as well as ruins.
We then stopped for lunch about an hour up the road, very gringo fied! We drove one block from the lunch stop, to be stopped by the police. The coach had a problem in their eyes. Lots of number plates get stolen or copied. They said ours was stolen. We got kicked out of the bus back to the resturant and waited 5 hours for anothe bus. we nipped to the town centre for an hour while we waited. John was chatting up the local girls so he could get some coca leaves. He pissed them of and got a drink of fermented grain or bean! The girls looked over 70 and had most of their teeth missing. Saw a bit of wildlife, birds i dont know what they are, a falcon nest at the inca ruin
got to Puno late evening. didt stop at gringo spots, just the loo stop. Hotel room ok. John gate crashed a wedding party at a local bar and brought them all drinks. I was too tied and stayed at the hotel
