Matt and Jen visit a very Sacsayhuaman

After recovering from the Salkantay trek we thought it was high time to explore Cusco. It´s a really pretty city, with lots of Spanish colonial buildings around the main square.





Just above the city is another Inca site called Sacsayhuaman (sexy woman, arf), which is made of huge limestone blocks up to 200 tonnes! Cor Blimey! We put our freshly rested legs to the test and took an uphill stroll to see it. It had it´s own Jesus.
Look out for the man who seems to have fallen over!

´I can see you´

The climb was almost the death of Jenny, but we were alright in the end. We even made it down the hill again before it rained, in time for tea and cake in a nearby cafe.





After a visit to the famous Pisac market for some souvenir shopping we started making plans for the fifteen hour journey south to Nazca...
