Today was our last day of this bad road!!! From Chincheros to Abancay, there was so much construction. It was a hard ride. But it's just preparing us for Bolivia. So we made it through all the construction. Mostly because they sent us on this tiny, dusty, rocky, bumpy road. Which I think it took us almost 4 hours to do 75 km… Enough said there. We we coming on our last little stench of gravel. Probably about a kilometre or 2, and dad has a flat again. The temporary plug from the other day had failed. Key word "temporary". So we loaded up the tire wound with glue and we threw another "temporary" plug in. We made it to Abancay around 3, but we decided to carry on to this town Corahausi, which is about and hour and a half out of Cusco. We found a hostel there, which the people, again, were just absolutely great. We got settled in and hit up an internet cafe. From there got some pizza. Which is a lot different from the pizza back home, and it was excellent. Once we got back to the hostel we got ready for bed.
