Journey to Puno

We retraced our route back over the high mountain pass and then headed east towards Puno today. I slept for part of the trip, read for the rest, all the while with V's CD "Chick Flicks" playing on continuous repeat (much to K's annoyance). We wandered around Puno for a while, but there wasn't too much to see, just the regular handicrafts and the town market. For supper, we went to a place that served cuy (guinea pig). Of course, I had to order it! It came sitting up on my plate with a cute little tomato crown. It's taste and texture were very similar to chicken, but the skin was too tough and thick to eat, and there wasn't much meat on it - lots of bones.
