Pete here! So we are now in Cuzco. After arriving in Lima, we spent a day there and got accostomed to the general vibe... We were blessed by a fransican monk while having lunch... and we saw these catacombs filled with geometrically arranged bones... very artistic... Saw a parade and a baby llama (pronounced Jama). I had heard of a wacky catholic festival in Cuzco from may 2nd to 4th, and since I am turning 33 on the 3rd, it felt like an amusing place to be... now, when they tell you that the altitude is difficult to get used to, they´re not lying...´We have been dizzy and short of breath since we caame up here... most notably during the three 14000 ft mountain passes that the bus took us through... the scenery is breathtaking and the town is very nice... Ev is thanking Louise for the ginger candies which saved her stomach in those high passes. Cuzco has cool markets and stuff too.. might get some funky clothing... Much love to everyone reading this blog:
