Calle Nueva Alta 444 Cusco, Peru, 231294
We spent the last few days in Ecuador not doing a huge amount and chilling out a bit as we thought we should recuperate before Peru. We made it back up to Quito and explored some of the old town again which we thought was much nicer the second time around! Sarah climbed to the top of a church tower which has a little ledge for climbing out onto with nothing to stop you from falling! Pete didn´t like the look of it and even felt a bit nervous when Sarah was up there! That afternoon we made our...
Cusco, Peru pbaudains... a side. I hadn’t been nervous, just curious, but still felt annoyed by my inadequate Spanish skills, as I only was able to pick up the basics. Which were: I was healthy and would have a healthy life. I would have a good job with a lot of money. I would marry a man with a lot of money. And I would have two children. I remember having been told the same thing with the children once in Japan 13 years ago, but not really any children have manifested themselves since then. I did ...
Cusco, Peru chrisser71... 1. Receipts for everything - even for a two pence pi-pi in a servicio higenico; must be tax deductable in Peru...
2. Expensive laundry bills - no washing facilities in the hostels and so 1.50 GBP per kilo is the going rate.
3. Being hassled by hawkers a lot more than in Ecuador; the little girls that try and sell you their one sole wares who speak good enough English to wine "but why don´t you want it?" when you politely say no gracias ...
... paths to reach the old citadel of Machu Picchu, if there is a railroad that can take you there in comfort in only six hours? Only the experience itself can supply the answer.
The physical exertion climbing up the trail, to slowly slide down mud covered knee ...
... It is really quite pretty, and many great photo opportunities. By this time, I am up to about 1,000 photos for this trip! And I still have over 12 days to go.
The streets of Sun Blas are nowhere near as steep as the Inca Trail, but every up`hill stretch burns in the muscles. The cold I have caught the previous night is also putting an additional strain on my lungs, so I have to take things a little slow. No matter, it is a free day and I am ...
... go. I stepped in and bang, brain freeze, it felt like my head had been slammed in to a wall, I stayed in for seconds, but as soon as I came out I felt great, it had now been a few days since I last had a shower and the welcome feeling of clean water, regardless of how cold felt good. We stayed here for a short while and breathed in the splendor of the place, the waterfall towered high above our heads and disappeared into the tree canopy, the sound of rushing water rang through my ...

YOU SHOULD BRING
... and the horsemen packed all the camping, cooking equipment and our bigger bags onto the horses while we carried only our small backpacks on our backs and walked with our rented walking sticks.
The first 3 hours was a bit uphill. But I felt better at the first break when I saw others in the group already lagging behind and arriving after me. It’s weird how seeing others struggling more than you can do for your confidence. I also ...
Apart from visiting the churches attended by local regular smartly dressed churchgoers, the monasteries and museums, Cuzco also has its fair share of restaurants and bars. Considering the number of tourists in town, it was hardly surprising. After the horse riding, I was burnt red as a sausage. I decided to go into town again that evening as I didn't feel like hanging around at Loki. Not only was I feeling embarrassed for being so sun burnt, but ...
