Jugo especial

Today Gracie and I treated ourselves to the ´special´juice we´ve been noticing in the market. For 6 soles ($2) we were given 2 glasses each filled to the rim with delicious goodness. Freshly blended mango, bee pollen, banana, raw honey, apple, pineapple, freshly cut aloe vera, a molasses type liquid, 2 raw eggs and a half-pint of dark Cusco beer. Sounds and looks disgusting, but it tasted delicious with a strong malty flavour. We could feel our bodies instantly grow healthier! The juice lady added that it´s perfect for hangovers. We might be going back tomorrow after yet another big night out at Roots, the local Salsa night club. We´ve been taking lessons with the cusqueña boys and their tight white shirts. Fun.

Olá, Emilia: the "Jugo Especial" sounds quite interesting, except for the raw eggs. They better be FRESH!

I am sure the cusqueno boys who teach you salsa dancing are even more interesting... You will have to demonstrate for the family when you come back.

Hope the trekk through the jungle was what you expected. Time to have a little rest, perhaps?

Talked with Liz yesterday and she is handling better her breathing problems. She sounded good. I'm sure she misses you.

With a big hug from Bobé and a bigger one from me.

Thinking of you and with love,

"BABA"
