To relax
from the Inka Trail we stayed another day in the hospitable city of Cusco. My

tour to see some extra sights that we might have missed. Minor sights in and
around Cusco:
Qorikancha.

Many people have remarked to me that I must be brave to have set off on this trip around the world. However, I feel it requires a lot more bravery to return and start over. When I first get home, I´ll be happy to see everyone, and they´ll be happy to see me, but eventually, my family …

Last night, our last night together was nice. We rode back in taxi bus to Cusco. Stayed at El Bacon, again. We all began to feel the effects of high altitude again. I didn’t feel tired until arrived back in Cusco. We had enough time to repack and to settle down. Then we met for dinner. We wal…

We had a free day in Cusco upon our return from Machu Picchu and I decided to explore as much as I could. Being a teacher, I was anxious to see several museums and their treasures. Some places allowed pictures, other prohibited them. I would have liked to sneak…

Wake up at 4.00 am to line up to catch one of the first busses bringing you from Agua Calientes to Machu Picchu. The busses have to ‘zig-zag’ about 20 minutes up mountain. We were among the first to enter the national park.
