So after several attempts of trying to get to White Jesus and failing me and the other students decide to stop being cheap and just take a taxi up the mountain. After a ten minute ride (mind you our walk and getting lost and not making was a two hour experience) we get to White Jesus just in time to take pictures for sunset. Like fools we told the taxi driver to leave thinking that we would be there long.
Here is the thing about being on top of a mountain. It's cold. And windy. We lasted about ten minutes. Got over the pictures with sunset thing. Looked around. And wondered how were we gonna get our behinds off this cold hill. We starting walking down the hill hoping for a taxi when the local bus beeped at us. And we surely hopped on even thou they overcharged us. We took the bus like the citizens of Cusco do.
Now when I say bus I mean big van packed with people with your face damn near squished to the window and you cuddling with the person next to you. No lie. So this is our ten minutue ride down the hill. It was a relatively short experience and not as excitig as I thought it would be. Especially after all the walking and hoping put in. But I did get my picture with Cristo Blanco and it was an adventure.
