Na 9 jsme meli zamluveny vylet na konich, tak jsme se trochu dele vyspali. Na koniky jsme vyrazili vcas v sestave - Kacka, ja a nas mlady pruvodce. Cesta vedla udolim lemovanym cervenymi skalami, erodovane vodou a vetrem do neuveritelnych tvaru. Kolem dokola spousta kaktusu, trnitych keru a silene vedro. Nejdrive projet Puerta del DIablo - Dablova brana, 2 skaly s prujezdem uprostred, pak Valle de las Machos - jakesi skalnato-hlinite veze a konecne do Canon del Inca (Kanon Inky). Kacenka byla ve svem zivlu - moc miluje kone, ja zase takovy fanda nejsem a konik to asi nejak vedel... Kdyz jsme minuli Puerto, chtel jsem si z batohu na zadech vyndat fotak, ale uz pri rozepinani bederniho pasu u batohu se nejak zblaznil a zacal sebou hazet atd. Ja radsi seskocil hned jak to slo a odneslo to jen koleno, loket a ruka. Nic velkyho, ale na kone se mi zpatky moc nechtelo. Zbytek cesty probehl v pohode - uz na jinem koni. A aby jsem cely den zakoncil ve velkem stylu, zasel jsem k mistnimi holici a nechal se za 8 bolivianu ostrihat - rikal jsem mu, ne moc nakratko...a jakze me ostrihal...jo nakratko.

At 9 we had our prebooked trip on horses so we could sleep a bit longer. We were there on time as our young guide. The path led through the valleys with red rocks formed by wi9nd and water into incredible shapes. Many cacti everywhere, lots of thorny bushes and of course very, very hot. First through Puerta del Diablo (devils gate) 2 rocks with small passage in between, then Valle de las Machos - clay-rock towers and finally Canon Del Inca. Kate was enjoying herself, she loves her horses, me being a bit on a cautious side, not a real fan and the horse seems to know it...While passing Puerto, i wanted to get my camera but when opening the hip belt of my rucksack, the horse got mad and i rather went down as quickly as possible not risking anything serious - just bruised knee, elbow and hand. And to finish this day stylishly i paid a visit to a local barber to have my hair cut for 8 bolivianos - i said not too short, ...and how he cut that...yes, shortly.
