Slightly repetitive name

Interesting. Laguna is Spanish for lake/other body of water, cui is Quechua for guinea pig, and cocha is Quechua for lake. So it's Lake Guinea Pig Lake.



Side not: have you had any cui since you've been down there? I must say, it's some good stuff.

Re: Slightly repetitive name

Agreed on all counts. And a number of cuy have met there demise because of me.
