Good to have some peace and quiet

Des headed off to Macchu Picchu on Sunday. However when he got to Cusco it turns out that the tour did not go until Tuesday, a day later than expected. There was absolutely no food included whereas some had been expected and the train back to Cusco from Agua Calientes was due to arrive in Cusco after the bus had departed for Arequipa. As you can imagine Des was not a happy chappy and 'Mr Fix It' is likely to have a strip torn off when Des returns. That said I have had a nice lazy time. Drinking Starbucks, yes they have even found there way here, and just generally chilling. Our hotel has a walled garden and is relaxed, friendly and a bit of an oasis.

If there is an earthquake here there are signs in all of the public buildings showing you the safest place to stand. Maybe they should bring back the Morrison Shelter for earthquake areas. If it can withstand Nazi bombs then surely it can survive an earthquake.
