Into Peru

We arrived in Peru yesterday without incident. The flight from Santiago to Arica in northern Chile was fine, and we were greeted at the airport by an eager taxi driver who took us across the border, helping us through customs etc very swiftly. Despite his apparent urging, we went to a hostel in Tacna, Peru, of our choosing, not his - a bare place, but cheap, central and clean. We saw a bit of the town but there isnt much to see. The cathedral was designed by Gustav Eiffel {the tower guy} but for all that was not overly exciting.
We were very frugal for lunch but splurged a bit for dinner - but thats what happebns when you go to a restaurent and say ´´give us what is good´´ - or at least thats what we think we said when surrounded by a flock of friendly but incomprehensible and pressuring waitstaff! The other interesting thing was a Gay Rights March that went past our window - almost the last thing we expected to see, and hilarious because of that.
We leave for Cuzco by bus shortly.
Adios!
