Waking up with a stonking headache....feeling a bit queasy and sick....trouble keeping down breakfast. It´s either another hangover after a City pub crawl or its altitude sickness in Cusco. Let´s go for altitude sickness. A perfect cure to altitude sickness or a hangover? How about a 5am start and a three hour train journey to Manchu Pichu? Manchu Pichu itself was an amazing site but the 6 hours there and back in a day was something I culd have done without.
As for the food here in the Highlands of Cusco? One of the local meats is alpaca. Looks a bit like a llama but has a fleece more similar to a sheep. A nice loin of alpaca smothered with mushrooms maybe?
The taste and texture was very much like pork. It was a bit hard going and tough. Probably not something to try again but most definitely something to try once.
