Greetings from Cusco, Peru!!!
This is the city of the llama... the city that the Incans called their capitol... the most visited city in South America... oh yes... it is wonderful.
It is colder here than Iquitos... Cusco has had weather in the 60s... and it is so refreshing!! Well, it was the first day being here. I am starting to miss the warm humidity of the jungle actually, due to the cold-sore throat-cough sickness I now have. Oh well... I will get better soon I am sure!
This city is absolutely beautiful... it is hard to even describe in words. Cobblestone streets. Mountains covered in richly antique buildings. Colorful hats-scarves-bags-gloves. People speaking a new language at every street corner... so much diversity. I will definitely post pics when I get home... be patient. Check sometime after June 3 for the update!!
We have been shopping, exploring, hiking, and being guided on tours for the past three days. I have seen so many beautiful scenes... ones like my eyes have never seen before this. Today we visited Machu Picchu. It was beautiful! I got sick on the train ride over, however... and did not feel well the whole time... but am still thankful for the opportunity and tried to make the best of it. Bumpy train rides are definitely not my favorite means of transportation now... haha.
Anyone want any souveniers???? They have some pretty amazing stuff here... just let me know, ok?? Do not be shy!
Llama scarves and hats.
Leather wallets, journals, etc.
Colorful purses.
Exotic jewelry and artwork.
Much more.......
Love always
