We’ve been waking up somewhere new for our first 3 mornings in Peru which has been exciting. We’ve been on the move pretty much since we landed which included 2 over night buses on the trot. The buses are really nice and actually good fun although the motion sickness got to Tul. Peru is a nation of world class snorers as well it seems so the ear-plugs have come in handy. You’re also not allowed to take a number two on the buses so the Imodium has come in handy too :-o. The drivers are properly mental here as well and we found it best not to look out of the front window to see how they’re driving.
We’ve settled in Cuzco now for a few days to acclimatise before the Inca trail. Cuzco is just what I was hoping for, although it’s been far colder than we were expecting once the sun’s gone down.
It’s Inti Raymi (the festival of the Sun) here in Cuzco so the locals are in especially good spirits.
Was that your travel guitar playing on the video? !
Haha, no sorry mum it was just a cheesy stock audio tune from iMovie on my iPhone. The guitar is a bit of a bugger to carry if I’m honest and am posting back to London tomorrow!
