Have arrived in Cusco after a 5.15am start. We're currently more than 3000 metres above sea level and boy am I feeling it. Went for a brief walk this morning when we arrived and felt quite dizzy. Had a long nap and went for a late lunch and am feeling a lot more human. Still very little energy though (is gonna make for a slow walk on the Inca trail if I don`t improve).
The hotel we are staying at is built from an old stone palace. It`s $#%&en freezing.
So far the highlight of the day has been discovering that Debbie has been given a fake coin. Who would have thought they`d counterfeit the coins?
Thanks for your messages. You`ll see I´ve obliged with the pisco sour recipe mum.

Hope you adjust to the altitude soon. Wonder where your Mum will get the Peruvian pisco? Ix
ReplyDeleteIs that enough of an excuse to go to Peru? For the pisco? How is it pronounced? Peesco Peescoo or Pissco? Maybe I could get an import licence and start a new trend?
ReplyDeleteI do hope the altitude does'nt affect you too much on the trail.
Love
Mum
peesco. at least that´s how I´ve been pronouncing it.
