Day 4- hanging around Urubamba

Every morning we enjoy breakfast all bundled up! It's as cold as it looks. However, as soon as the sun is fully out it heats up in no time. 

Max developed a fondness for Pepe today. He carried Max around for an hour, going wherever Max directed him. He said that he is Max's " Abuelo Peruano"-Peruvian Grandfather. 

Max loves to chase the chickens, but I don't think the chicken like being chased by Max, when they hear him coming they scurry and hide. 

Croquetta follows Max everywhere. She's a great dog and I should be paying her for the entertainment she provides Max with, although she stole his soccer ball and hid it, so I'll count that as her payment.

After breakfast we went to the city square and the local market. They have started the Independence Day celebrations so there was music and a parade of dancing children, lots for Max to see. 

A lot of the restaurants have the most colourful and crafty decors. It's great because it keeps Max amused while we eat. He spent most of lunch trying to dislodge these spoons from the dessert table. 

Max enjoyed some local strawberries that we bought at the market. They were really delicious! We're going to go back tomorrow for more. 

We went to a restaurant called Kaia for dinner, it was awesome. Max is enjoying all of the food here, but his favourite things here are the plantain chips... And mine too! Their high chairs may not reach Canadian safety standards, but they're fun and cozy. 

Max made a new friend, William the waiter. He kept Max entertained while we finished our meal. 

William even found him some toys to play with, I can't imagine this ever happening in a restaurant in Canada. 

Tomorrow is the holiday, so we will be going to a fiesta in the town square... should be a fun experience for Max.

¡Hasta Luego!
