The crowd was psyched, our friends behind the bar kept us quenched, and when Nick's closed down we headed to Mama Africa, the only place in Cusco open until 7 am for the local night owls. I danced a lot of salsa with DJ Jaime (interesting), acted as translator between a gay Brit who reeeeeally wanted to be more than friends with a straight Limeñan, and celebrated a new found appreciate for Aretha Franklin.

Best Night Everrrr
I got home at 7 am this morning. I can't remember the last time that happened. Anyway, it was a fantastic, wild night not to be forgotten (mostly because we managed to catch most of it on camera). Nick was hosting a party at his bar featuring four different DJs. One was Jaime Cuadra, from Lima, whose music was heavily featured in the last James Bond movie, Quantum of Solace. Alex and I got quite excited about the prospect of partying with Nick & friends while rocking out to some Peruvian techno.

Yeah that tequila shot in front of us did not last long
I thought I was the bartender (thanks Aidan and Freddy for letting me pretend). Alex did not realize the lens was partially closed... gives it an artsy feel, no?
