Our First Dinner Guests

Earlier in the week we were in the cafeteria of a local clinic where we met a couple of Irish college students - Cilliam and Kate. They were on their way to Colca - a two-day excursion gets you 1 hour an 20 minutes at the precipice, not much. We invited them for dinner on Sunday night and they came, leaving our home for the bus station and an overnight bus to Cuzco before continuing on to Bolivia, the Road of Death (by bicycle) and finally surfing in Salvador, Brasil.

The meal was papa a la Huancaina, sopa de verduras, caihua rellena and helado de lucuma for desert. It is easy to make mistakes here with wine. We bought a wine that was made from two different grapes. One of these was malbec, one of Andy's favourites, and yet the wine was super sweet. From now on we'll have to ask and not suppose.
