Bakery Or Zoo?

The thin air of the Andes can build up an appetite. After wandering the streets of Cusco for hours, Rick and I decided to stop and get a bite to eat. Restaurants lined the outside of the main square - The Plaza D'Armas. Unable to make a decision, and unwilling to slow down, we ducked into a bakery on the side street.
I ordered a vegetable empanada, and waited while the woman behind the counter heated it up. Behind me, a woman and her llama waited patiently to place their order. Not exactly up to western health codes, but a tasty treat for less than a buck, and a great photo-op.
