Salvador gives his new fluffy owl from Grandma & Grandad a hug

Dan and I went for a Saturday night wander around the centre of Cusco last night. It was actually a bit better than normal with much less hassle from the restaurant hawkers in the Plaza de Armas.We did find that 'Gringo Alley' was still as repulsive as ever, the most intriguing offer as we strode down Procuradures (the real name of this narrow dingy street full of the worst businesses in Cusco) was for 'Pizza, Drugs, Sex'. They really know how to promise a good time here. This was after a string of 'No thank you's' from Dan earlier in the day to a postcard seller brought the response that he was a 'bad tourist'! The English that is learnt in Cusco is truly put to positive use by the locals.
