Previous2005-10-10 - Cusco, Peru - No Gracias, Cusco
Walking around Cusco, you find yourself saying, repeatedly, "No, Gracias." It seems that every Cusqueño/a is vying for your attention, selling postcards, fingerpuppets, drugs, restaurants, etc. In the Irish Pub they even sell T-shirts that say just that, "no gracias." Cusco is a beautiful city with an even more beautiful square. We spent the day just wandering around, visiting the sqaure, cathedrals, and the neighborhood of San Blas. We stumbled across this really neat shop called "The Coca Shop" where they make a variety of things with Coca leaves. Jason and I picked up some Coca chocolates after sampling some of their offerings.
