Choquequirao hike out

One of my bucket list items to the trip was to do the Choquequirao trail.
I had done a fare bit of research but still with it is unsure so I just booked the bus and see what happens. I booked the bus on  red bus, which i found this just a booking platform. I got to the bus terminal and the operated didn't know what to do with the e ticket she wanted to charge the fare again. (30soles.  I paid 90 through the booking platform). In my very broken spanish i tried to explain to the bus driver that I want to get off at a certain point he agreed the bus got we away an hour late. after 3 and a half hours and an hour of daylight left I knock on the drivers cabin.he  pulled over and let me out in the middle of nowwhere, as requested. I had to walk down to the town of Cachora 10 kilometres, no problem until i gets dark. I have my head torch and followed the trail on my watch  got into town and had a nice meeting great  with the local police. They directed me down to my hostel. Joel was my host hey was lovely gave me the rundown of the place and asked what time i want to breakfast. Up at 6 wander down to breakfast. omelette and bread rolls and a few cups of tea.
I got away by 7:30 and joel's dogs started following me after about 5 kilometres i figured he wasn't going to go back so i sent him a message and he asked to pull over the first car and put the dog in it😂 The dog didn't want to leave me I could hear it crying for a minute or so. I arrived in capilyoc. Trail head. I paid my entry fee and headed off down the trail. 2 hours of very steep descent switchback and slippery rocks and Stairs there were a few small villages along the way. i stopped for some  drinks and a sandwich. The swing bridge on the aripumac river. Was pretty long and quite wobbly. Next up with 10 ks of the same but up. it was probably the hardest 10k I've ever done. After 4 hours i arrived in marampata. I couldn't find the room I was looking for . I just picked first one very rustic.  my room has an earth floor and overlook the cattle shed. As i'm sitting here writing this the seniora is lighting the wooden fire to cook me dinner. Dinner was plain rice with an egg on-top. Hand cut fried chips tomato. And a cup of fresh mint tea. Pretty good very filling. Considering last night dinner was four bananas🍌🍌🍌🍌
