Sunny strolls in cusco

Yesterday was a relaxed day soaking up the sun as we wandered around the churches and remaining markets in Cusco. 

As we munched on the usual Milhouse breakfast we got chatting to a guy from London who asked to join us on our tour of the city. 

Following the guide book we started at the top, taking in the view across the city, then made our way down Cusco's pretty little streets to a cute market square where Libby sat and sketched for a while. 

Our new friend wasn't so interested in the markets so we moved on to see a few of Cusco's old, ornate churches and inca ruins. 

Samuel left us when we got to the main market as we warned him Libby would be a while choosing her blanket. Once the blanket decision had been made we had our usual lunch of empanadas and a slice of cake from a cheap local spot. 

As Libby sat and sketched and Hannah read her book in a sunny square a flock of children came over to peer at Libby's drawing. They were sweet but luckily they eventually left and we returned to the hostel. 

In the evening we went for another stroll before dinner followed by a film in the hostel's cinema room. 

It was nice to have a slow, relaxing day after the excitement of the past couple of weeks. Unfortunately the night was less calm as our sleep was broken by the drunken antics of our room mates. We're thankful that we've booked into a private room for our final 2 nights in Lima.
