Mancora

Mancora was a bit of a disappointment as we had been looking forward to arriving in Peru. On the plus side it has a not bad beach and the weather was mostly warm and sunny. On the negative side it is a rather scruffy place, the cheaper meals were all **** and we had to pay a lot for the one decent meal we had in a mexican restaurant. On the second day we had to move rooms after we were infested with large cockroach like flying things that seemed to congregate in every corner of our room, amon...

Inkas, shamans and wonderful Cusco

... were also some small shops selling shaman stuff, and Silvia told me that it used to be possible to buy llama foetuses but that it had become illegal and that sales now only was done in hiding. Barely had she said that before we actually passed by a little shop that had llama foetuses hanging from the ceiling – gross! Then we walked to the magnificent cathedral that contained some of the most impressive altars I have ever seen. Here you certainly saw what the Spaniards had ...

... rat which they call Cuy or as we know it a guinea pig. Yes, I'm off to a good start 2 days in again on this trip with my culinary appreciation for traditional dishes no matter how weird or gag reflexing they may be. I specifically asked for them to prepare it the traditional way which is dishing it whole although they normally prepare it tourist-palately correct by just dishing pre-cut pieces of the meat. No - me bring the tail, head, and all. Rodent for dinner.....mmmmm ...

Kerry does Cuzco - Part 1

... shopping terraces which is where she sat. The fountain, in the middle of the Plaza, was surrounded by green grass, small trees and smooth walkways.
The lights saturated the fountain and bounced off the waters mist. In the retreating natural light the church steeples dominated the Plaza. Children and dogs played together on the grass. Car tyres made a muddled vibrating sound on the cobbled streets below as they circled the square.
Kerry found it very relaxing.

No Inca Trail for me :(

... i dont know if that is a good tip or not because i dont know how much they get per day or trip or whatever, but i hope that was ok.
So me and jacob had to take a 45 minute bumpy bus ride back to ollantaytambo, and then a 2 hour taxi ride back to Cusco. Jacob called Vladamir and our orginal hotel in Cusco was booked so i had to stay in their sister hotel. They brought me my big pack and i went to sleep at 7 and slept for more than 12 hours. Vladamir met me in the ...

INCA Part 2 England V Peru

... heart, it seems my body doesn´t like altitude.

Anyway with all that behind us we crawl out of our tents to find the most amazing breakfast awaiting us...porridge, pancakes, omlette, fresh bread....its anyone´s guess how our fab cook conjured up these culinary delights with only a small hob in the middle of the mountains with no sign of civilisation anywhere! The views as we ate were unbelieveable, Salkantay peak behind us further mountains to either side ...

Bungee Jump!

... the adrenaline rush ...wooph....

After the initial jump and bump back up you're stuck between skies and the ground above you (upside down...:) )... it's freightening and exhilirating all at the same time....

Anyway it was all caught on dvr, and Danni took pictures and videos of it, so that will be uploaded later on...

... Cuzco itself is really lovely. The altitude though... I am just starting to get my appetite back. The first day, all it took to fill me to bursting was a small orange. Actually. Now I´m up to eating small meals, at least twice a day! Our hostel is in the San Blas neighbourhood, which is up a steep hill from the Plaza de Armas, the main square. The walk is not nearly so daunting now, but the first few days, I was gasping for breath by the top.
The streets in San ...

We said goodbye to Jaime, our guide and Julio, our driver. Jaime, highly recommended, can be reached ...
