Happy Birthday Peter

Happy Birthday Peter! its his 33rd and we´re in Cusco.
We slept 12 hrs last night and are feeling much better!
Last night at about midnight the festival was ongoing but we were too tired to get up. It was right outside our door and sounded amazing!
Its the festival of the cross where all the families bring their crosses to get blessed. Apparently if two family crosses meet they ahve to stop and drink and make the crosses bow to each other and kiss them. I´m sorry we didn´t see it but it sound good with a brass band and lots of firecrackers. we were so tired that the firecrackers didn´t even keep me awake!

We´re not sure what we´´re doing today but we´re finally starting to meet other travellers. There is another girl in the hostel having her bday and they´ve got balloons and hats for her (not the hostel but her friend).

Ciao
Evelyn
