There isnt a lot to be said for today. We hiked a grand total of 6km over 4 hours. Painfully slow. We arrived in the next pueblo called Oasis for the 5 swimming pools it boasts. I was bored and restless. We had pasta for lunch which immediately upset my innards adding further to my irritation. I felt despondent. How can I find a way to be happier in Peru? I cannot take another tour. Yet, I am in a country that it is not safe to travel alone. On Sunday night, the owner of the hostel had encouraged me to take a taxi rather than walk 6 blocks to the restaurant for my safety. Really? I was starting to feel hemmed in like an animal in a cage.
The best that can be said for today is that Alejandro bounced back from his heat exhaustion and was able to continue with us.
