The first restaurant meal the travellers tried featured alpaca steaks, beef hearts and Gard’s choice: fried guinea pig or Cuy, an Andean specialty. It was described with darker meat than chicken but no clue as to the taste, other than it was an experience.
A cute story of the journey back from seeing Machu Picchu. As the bus left the mountain a young boy ran down the stairs and timing it perfectly he would wave and yell “hellllloooo” each time the bus past him. At the foot of the mountain he staggered onto the bus, shouted "Gooodbyyyye" and then he walked around collecting money for his performance.
What I learned that was special:
• Huayna Picchu, the mountain top next to Machu Picchu, has a restriction on the number of people that can go up there each day, so you need to be up early before the quota was filled.
