Goodbye to Cuzco (and Frakenstein?)

After resting for about 2 solid days... one of which i didn´t get out of bed. I went to the local Peruvian Drug Dealer, i mean pharmacy, and bought some Cipro. I am not sure exactly what you need a prescription for in Peru but it ain´t much. Almost half the travelers I talk to have purchased some valium for bus rides or percacet for their nights out. Either way, I took my Cipro and feel much, much better. I am not personnaly one who like to take unnessasary pills, especially with out a doctor´s prescription, but I just wanted to get on with my trip. Sorry Ryan, I haven´t met Pete yet, guessing he still resides in Bolivia. So, I am feeling better and Jon returned from his 8 day hike to Machuu Pichuu, an extended group of 10 of us head to Puno and Lake Titicaca (tee-hee).

So I bid fair-well to both Cuzco (look for the Karaoke-Hostel-Scooter Emporium comming soon), and to my home for the past 10 days, the Hostel Frakenstein. Hostel Frakenstien is run by the trilingual german, Ludwig, his Peruvian wife, Marita, and their adorable daughter, Fiona. Also a hired hand, Louis, does most of the menial chores with a smile. Also keeping our stay interesting was Bruno the dog, who tried to give a special good-bye to Val, Marten the iguana, who rules the second floor, and a multitude of exotic plants and fish. Here are a few pictures of the Frakensteins and their beautiful hostel.
