more of train impressions & Puno

Passing by Tupac Amaru Avenue somewhere in the Peruvian countryside. This is the Inca rebel after which the rapper Tupac Shakur named himself. Gangsta!



Passing by Juliaca, Peru, right before Puno. Juliaca is the nastiest town we've seen so far. It looks like a bomb hit this place, there's not a single tree, just donkeys kicking up dust, rusted out train carriages, and car parts for sale.
Disgusting. This is how I imagined Peru to be before I got here. Luckily for the most part it's exceeded my expectations by far.

Puno. We are only staying here for 1 night. Veeery cold:


The highlight of our night was getting hit on by 2 gay guys each. Hey muchachos, just because we're gringos, it don't mean we're gay too! :)
