LEGACY JOURNAL OF WINSTON RAYNE
4/2 - 10 P.M. - Hotel Nueva York, Quince Mil
The going has been hellish - RAIN - therefore, mud & landslides, but what else can one expect on the eastern slope of the Andes in early April? It will get worse as we descend toward the cloud forest of the monta�a.
It took us damn near 2 days to go the 100 odd km from Cuzco to Quince Mil. Thank God there was a hotel - rat & vermin infested hole that it is - at least it has a bed & a roof, which doesn�t leak too much. We both had to laugh at the irony of the name - New York Hotel. God knows who thought that one up.
Off again at daybreak. We�ll make the turnoff to the mining road about 25 km from here. My son is not a pleasant traveling companion. Such a strange boy - sometimes he�s worse than his sister with her rosary beads. Don�t know where it comes from - not from me, nor from the Barbara I used to know.
