NUTTY Night with Battlin' Pat

Last night was a riot. We all did our own thing for a few hours all over the city and finally reconvened at the hostal Señorio Real at dinner time. The guys got a bunch of rum, Kola Real, and ice cream, so we ate the tub of helado and split the bottle of rum over the next hour or so. Then went off for a giant and AMAZING pizza at a place across the main avenue. Fully stuffed, we splurged on another bottle of rum and set to drinking it.
Pat got this crazy streak in him and started jumping from bed to bed in our little hostal room and wriggling around underneath them all. Then, he focused his energy on us and we started a full on wrestling match. He has the strength of twenty men and we totally tore the room apart with our mobile wrestling match. Over and over again, Andy or I, or both, would pin him down and he'd say Uncle. Then, thirty seconds later, he'd catch his breath and we'd start the mayhem again. The room was so unbelievably disheveled by the end it was insane. At some point, I felt compelled to take down the glass-paned picture of Don Miguel above one of the beds because we were getting so nuts. Thank god I know some jujitsu, otherwise Pat would have just stomped me. Nothing got broken and no serious injuries resulted, but MAN it was fun. We slept like the dead last night. And miraculously, nobody knocked on our door or mentioned anything this morning when we checked out. Cleanup was difficult as we had to remake two beds that got overturned but that nobody slept in. Plus our bags got virtually emptied and everything scattered all over the place. BIG FUN. Thanks, Pat. Eat your heart out, WWF.
Today we checked into a slightly further hostal called the Valenzuela Hospedaje and it's great there. Four more days in Cuzco, so we're going to hike to the gigantic Jesus as soon as we can and generally just soak up this big city. There's great cuisine here, too, so we will definitely partake in some of that action. I'm going to the gym today, got some extra energy and the guys want to take a ciesta. Feel the buuuuurn. Musclehead.

Ta for now, friends. Be Rad
