07/08/2019 – Chill, Cusco, Peru

We got woken up at 0800 by some workmen doing some drilling/sawing on the roof. We got up slowly and had breakfast in the hostel. Then we sat up on the roof terrace in the sun to keep warm. I chugged away at catching up on the diary (has taken absolutely HOURS) and Josh has been investigating a trip to the rainbow mountains. Josh sorted us a tuna pasta lunch and we spoke with Matty on Ellie on a whatsapp video call. By about 17:00 I had had enough screentime so we walked into town to the chocolate museum café, and treated ourselves to a lovely hot chocolate. We were presented with a teapot of hot milk, big bowls of delicious melted artisanal chocolate, and a bowl each of mini marshmallows. We made and indulged in our hot chocolates, sat on stools overlooking a little square, soaking in the last of the daylight and a bit of atmosphere. We walked home via the supermarket, made ourselves a peanut butter and banana roll for dinner and got into bed. Whilst we were watching some Greys Anatomy I sneezed and one of the homemade slats in the bed fell out of the frame so the whole bed collapsed into a heap on the floor. We got the giggles but managed to piece it back together (kind of!)
