Copacabana

I couldn´t stop singing the song when I was on my way there... da da da Copa.. copa cabana. .. da da dada da ribbons in her hair..dadada..... in the copa.. copa caBANa... ( ok, so I really don´t know the song)
My time waiting in Cusco proved to be rather enjoyable. I coaxed 2 locals into showing me the city... for 6 hours. hehehe. It was great, we went to the top of the city to Saqsaywaman (pronounced sexywoman) got a great view of the city, saw some fantastic ruins, went through a tunnel (scary), saw a movie at a movie bar, and just had tons of fun at no cost- definately a perk of seeking out locals as friends for the day, they can talk their way out of any tourist fee.
Copacabana was cool, but I stayed at the worst place in town. La Refugio was the name- don´t stay there. They weren´t going to let me shower after my 9 hour bus ride because ¨the water in town was off after 11am¨ Well, I managed to find the water. Later I went to listen to some live music at a cafe and all the power in the city went out- they played in the candlelight, it was a joy. I went back to my hostal in the oh so dark streets. Seriously pitch black, I wasn´t sure which hostal was mine. All the doors were blocked with aluminum gates because of the blackout. I had to pound on the aluminum for 20 minutes when the neighbor came to my rescue, it was 1030pm. The next morning when I asked for the key to the shower my hostal guys told me that I showered yesterday and that was my quota and told me that I was a bad guest coming in late at night and not tipping them and now I wanted to shower AGAIN. I would have to pay extra if I wanted another shower.The walked away. Fine, I´ll pay your stinkin $0.40 extra cents to wash myself, but there´s no reason to call my a ¨mal cliente¨ you shouldn´t have locked everything up and went to sleep when you knew I was out listening to music- I was their only guest that night. So, not appreciating being called names, I proceeded to poop on their pillows and superglue snotted up tissues to the ceiling. Now, I deserve the name.
