Today was our last day in Cusco, and really the last full
day of the trip :( In the morning, I got
some work done on my book reports and repacked all my stuff so that I wouldn’t
have to do so much tomorrow morning. After
that, a group of us got lunch at the Peruvian-Thai fusion restaurant right in
the city center, which was DELICIOUS.
After lunch, we just walked around la
Plaza de Armas just exploring various shops and vendor stands. Then Nathan, Marcus, Jonah, Erin and I went
to get massages, something I have never done before. We all got Incan massages, which was a blend
of all the massages they offer. It
included hot rocks, deep-tissue massage, soft-tissue massage, and
everything. No, we did not get happy
endings. But my whole body was pooped
from Machu Picchu and the entire trip in general so it felt great.
Then we went to a school not far from the hotel to have
culture classes with Monica and Henry.
Those were a lot of fun actually and really interesting. In Monica’s class we pretty much went through
the presidencies of Peru since the 1960’s and how their policies affected Perú
(the poor, the working class, the wealthy class, the economy, etc.). I’m super interested in that kind of stuff so
it was a blast.
