The Inca Trail to...
... on the up hill parts we were usually third and fourth... Yes! Although it turns out I'm not so good at the steep descents and we had a slow pace returning down the mountains, even with my walking stick I managed to slide over backwards, luckily just into mud and not off the side of a mountain.

Met the head cook Marco, a small and smiling Inka man from the sacred valley. . He whipped us up some scrambled eggs, bread, bananas, and hot drinks at a folding table with stools outside of the hot springs. Fueled up, backpacks on and a stop at the last real toilet for three days, ...
