Peru Superlatives

Now that I´m in my last day here in Peru, I thought I´d put together a little "Best and Worst" list for Peru. Here goes:

Most Popular: The Alpaca (like a llama, makes the softest and warmest wool!)

Best Trait: The people are always friendly and ready to help
Worst Trait: Restaurants never serve your drinks until after you get your meal and leave you dying of thirst. Teach these people some smart business skills PLEASE!

Best Food: Avocado (delicious here and always ripe!)
Worst Food: Beef (the cows here don´t eat so well)

Best View: Views from Pisaq and Machu Picchu
Worst View: The slug on the bathroom floor in Huancayo

Best Weaver: Tino (my host dad)
Worst Weaver: The taxi driver from Ollantaytambo to Cusco

Best Music: Still waiting to find it, though a lot of the local stuff is fun to dance to.
Worst Music: Reggeaton (enough already!)

Biggest Pet Peeve: No one, no vendor or hotel or store worker, EVER has change. If you don´t have exact change for something its like they have no idea what to do, like they have never encountered this unusual situation before. AAAARRRRGGGGHHHH!!!!!
Runner-up Pet Peeve: The buses and trains keep deciding to strike on the exact days we want to use them!

Joking aside, its been a great month (yes, month!) here in Peru. We´re spending our last day here in Puno, a lake-side town near the border of Bolivia. We just visited some of the islands in Lake Titicaca. They were amazing! I´ll write about them soon, as long as I can remember to bring my camera to the Internet Cafe next time!

Thanks,
Joan
