Signs?!

On our last night in Cuzco I decided to join a yoga class which I really enjoyed but by the time I was done it was dark and the studio was a good 12-15 blocks from our hostal.  As I walked back several of the streets were without street lights. Long story short I managed to step into a huge hole in the sidewalk which sent me flying into the road and I hit the side of an oncoming car which sent me flying back into the sidewalk.  I felt a little shaken up but otherwise fine untill three blocks from the spot I loooked down and my flip flop was filled with blood, crap.  I found a pharmancy and cleaned up before hobbling back to the hostal where colin was in bed sick with more stomach issues.

The next day as we toured a ruin on our way to Puno, Peru, Colin complained about an ant bite he got in the jungle.  I looked at it and noticed the scab had gotten really big over the last couple days, as I took a closer look we realised it was not a scab at all but a insect that had attched itself to Colin and was growing big and fat on Colin´s hip...gross!  We removed them both (yup there were two) and decided that both the toe and flesh eating inscet were signs that it was time to leave Peru, we spent the night in Puno before heading towards the border.
