Well we didn't get our lie in as we were woken at 6 by a train going by blasting it's horn, we then had one of the other guests being woken by room service and then the cleaning lady decided to vac the hall carpet on our floor.
We ordered a coffee from room service and decided to watch the tv until 9 and then went forbreakfast, this was a success as we both ordered mixed fruit and cornflakes.Went back to the room and watched a bit more tv, we really were slobbing today as we were not going out on a trip until 3.30
Went to the Sillustani Inca burial site, where we walked up another steep hill of uneven rocks to see burial chambers for the well to do men of the tribe, like priests and chiefs.
Found a white feather floating, had to pick it up and I think the guide thought I was mad - so who cares.
After the tour, our guide, Rogertook us straight to Juliaca airport where we were to catch our flight to Lima, Santiago and then Easter Island. -Now this is where the fun starts, or should we say that something is hitting the fan.
Our flight to Lima is leaving on time at 9.05pm, the flight to Santiago is leaving on time at 00.55 BUT the flight to Easter Island that should be leaving at 9.30 in the morning is now leaving at 5.35 in the afternoon, which means 11 chuffing hours in Santiago airport, deep joy, we are so excited and can't wait.
On a lighter note, the Peru word of the week is Pacha Mama, you will all hear this several times when we get back, so please learn it carefully. The other thing is if you ever get chance to buy some chewing gum called Eclipse by Wrigleys, take our advice and DONT, not only does it smell of germaline it also tastes like it, but the selling point is that it kills germs and a few taste buds on the way.
While writing this we are sitting in Juliaca airport with an adult only programme being shown in the departure lounge - they would never get away with it in England.
Jackie is now happy as with us being at a lower altitude her lighter now works, I'm also happy cos my chuffing fingers no longer have any skin on them from trying to get the lighter to work.
