gimme stitches

gimme stitches
dress me up in stitches it's now or never, dying to get my blood on you
as i mentioned a few days ago - i recently went to machu picchu for the second time in two years. the first time i went i trekked the classic inca trail route. this time around i chose the cheaper, and more varied, inca jungle trek. it was a 4 day trip where you could choose to cycle, raft, zip-line and trek, all of which culminates in a visit to machu picchu. if you're trying to work out which of these were responsible for the injury you're looking at, well disappointingly it was a fifth seemingly harmless activity - a visit to some natural hot springs. a slippery surface, a painful lack of balance, a half jump half fall and a sharp rock under the water were all contributing factors to me lying on a bench and a nurse threading 6 stitches into my shin. to act as a distraction as much as anything else, and that anything else should be fairly clear judging by the website you chose to log in to, i took a bunch of photos of the operation. it hurt less then it looks, and i was still able to continue the subsequent activities, which included a lot of steep walking when we got to the ancient inca city and surrounding mountains. yesterday i went to get unthreaded, and my leg appears to be holding itself together, so all i need to do now is try and think of a cooler story which doesn't involve me falling into some shallow water. suggestions welcome.
