Some time in Cuzco (31/May-1/Jun/06)

Cuzco, Peru

Well, no kayaking as it was a bit expensive, plus the only two agencies didn’t have a "taster" session, only full-on 3-day courses. Spent a couple of days walking around, sorting out our lives, investigating restaurants and checking in with Esther’s parent’s agency. Thank goodness we did - they’d got the dates wrong for the big meeting in Machu Picchu. As there was little for us to see in Cuzco (as we will be seeing it all with Esther’s parents) we decided to go on a 4-day trek to some alternative ruins (Choquequira) which are a bit off the beaten track as the only way to get there is a two-day trek (and another 2 days back). The trek also goes on all the way to Machu Picchu on an alternative 8-day route, but no point for us. Our booked "Inca trail" trek may be a bit too typical, but it’s got to be done.
