Day 22 – Cuenca to Vilcabamba


Two buses later and we arrived in serenely located little town of Vilcabamba.


The highlight of my evening was overhearing the conversation in a restaurant between two very serious Americans on the next table, one was angrily telling his friend how he had asked his wife to write his epitaph and what she had spent three days composing:


'Phil is an asshole'.


He may well be an asshole, but he will never know how close he came to having warm beer spat all over his back too.
