On Friday, we (my profesora, my salsa teacher and I) went to El Estribo to practice my new moves and just to go see Trujillo at night... it was pretty fun.. Had some peruvian beer... listened to some fun music.. the cover charge was 5 soles.. almost didnt get in because i was wearing sneakers.. but my only other shoes are sandles.. when i have my flickr pictures up.. i'll also have a video up of the band.. they played some american songs.. heh.. so i took a vid clip of it....
Went to Otuzco yesterday.. a cute little traditional town with the most amazing catholic church i've ever seen... it was for la virgen de la puerta (i believe)... the ride up was quite horrendous... if i didnt take nausea medication id be puking (someone in our car had to puke every 10 minutes).. tried a popcycle from a freezer that wasnt very clean looking... but my profesora also got one too and said its great and i have to try it.. so i did.. and i'm not sick.... heh.. =)
Today was the spring festival.. so Trujillo is known to be springtime year around... so when its the first week or so of spring there is a huge festival with a queen for everything you can think of... and they sit on little floats across town... along with other ppl dancing in traditional costumes.. bands... etc... lady behind me kept yelling things out like... 'youre beautiful!!' 'you need to eat more potatoes!'.. and such.. it was entertaining hehe... 'dance!!'
now on to another full week of 10hr day classes
