Visit to Pisac

Pisac Travel Blog | Travelogue | Travel Journal

A five and half week trip that starts with a week in Santiago Chile, heads briefly to La Paz and across Lake Titicaca to Puno and Cuzco, Peru where I will spend over two weeks. My last week will be around the beginning of August and will cover Lima and some of the southern coastal towns of Peru.

Visit to Pisac

If my mother saw the cliff that was about 10 inches behind me in this picture she would die.

Another short entry...

Visited Pisac, Peru today.  Famous for its Sunday markets, I splurged and shared a $10/30 minute taxi ride with three girls from New York who did a pretty good job of spending money at the markets.  The 60 cent bus ride to the same city would have required a 30 minute wait for a standing room only bus and I thought I could afford the few extra dollars.

After the market, the girls went on other cities while I spent an hour climbing the local ruins that provided amazing views of the valley below.  The final climb to the top was actually more of a climb that a hike, that only a few of us chose to do.  The pictures at the top were taken by a couple who has spent the last 10 years traveling the world in their sail boat.  I was a bit beat afterwards and headed back to Cuzco for a Lunch overlooking the Plaza.
