12th post (i´m sick)

.Anyway so news update. Im very sick and have wat is commonly known as (on the tour that is) tap ass. see if u can work out what that means.

Anywho since comming back from machu pichu havent accomplished much. We did go and spend a night in a local home stay which was really fun. We played soccer agasinst locals and got thrashed. this was at 4000m altitude on lake titikaka and i think i almost had a heart attack. that night had dinner with the family i was staying with which was very nice. Then we danced with the locals in "native costume" which was good fun as well.

That night slept in a room u would have loved which was mud floor and walls and filled with spiders. Next day had breaky with our family and then left to these reed islands which were very touristy since those not wearing native clothing were hidden out of sight as we rocked up.anyway since then i have been sick since then and havent posted and post cards from peru cause i was going to do it on the last day but was sick in bed.anyway will send this to mum and dad as well but u most likely will see it first.

anyway lake titikaka is incredibly beautiful but most of the time i was on it i felt like crap. apparantly it meansd sacred stone or sacred panther or sacred bird. It had lots of meanings apparantly.

missing ya all and will be back soon. (so prepare to embrace my awesomness once again)
