I stayed one day in Abancay mostly because it was Sunday and there was a match of the Polish team on the European Championship... I was hoping to find a place to see a transmission of the match. In one restaurant they were really nice and they searched for the transmission for 20 minutes, but none of the 200 channels available were transmitting this match :) Well, a day of rest is not bad before the next killer ascent! And it was a good opportunity to try something new - some local fruits I never tried before - the 'granadilla' (heavenly taste - my new favorite fruit) , the 'carambola' (a bit similar to a kiwi, but even more acidic), and the 'pepino' (quite amazing mixture of melon and cucumber; it's even called sweat cucumber :)).
