26th Sept - Cusco Day 2

Woke up pretty hungover around 10. Got ready and tried to round up Aussie lads to book a tour. Again it was like herding cats! One would appear for a while, then disappear, then two more would turn up and one would disappear etc etc. Eventually booked a tour. With a tour operator I didn't really have much confidence in, but what could go wrong! I then walked around town for aaaaages looking for NFL. No joy, so ended up back in Jacks for same meal as before, this time with Rob, Rich, Matt aka the Aussie lads. Then i went to the local stadium to see my second Peru Primera Liga game in a week! Cienciano are the Cusco team, went alone despite trying to round up a few lads for a couple of days - turns out half of the bloody hostel were there!

Match dull enough 1-2 for a finish, real entertainment was at half time when 2 ladies both around the 50 mark started fighting! Brilliant. One of the husbands stepped in and he got a right clatter to the face which knocked him backwards and he landed on his wife sending her flying down about 3 rows! Police nowhere, eventually they turned up and yer one was still throwing slaps! Gas craic!

She likes a scrap

Came back anyway with Eoin Waldron from Mayo and girlfriend Helen from Tipp who i met at the match. Eoin used to work with my sister up in Dublin, dead sound couple.

Back for briefing before trip tomorrow and the fukkers completely messed us around! Tour would be nothing like advertised! Raging! Decided to have a go at finding another tour and got lucky at The Point hostel where we managed to get on the jungle trek for tomorrow. Result!

Back to hostel and Roy and Catriona from La Paz showed up! Stayed for an hour, they were gone five mins when Eoin from earlier in the day turned up for pints. Ended up staying put till 11.30, then had to go back and pack for the 6.30 start!
