Getting High In Cusco

We flew into Cusco yesterday afternoon. Had a cup of Coco leave tea and were promptly told to go and lay down and not to walk around for 2 hours. The lady incharge of the Hostel was absolutely lovely, but as we don´t speak Spanish and she doesn´t speak English it was a lot of laughs working that out. We thought we were fine, until we got up from our ¨rest¨ and our heads spun. But were not doing too badly. We´re relieved that we decided sometime ago not to do the trek, although it would have been fantastic, but it´s so hard to breath even when you´re just lying down.

But as we´re feeling slightly better today, we´re going to take ourselves off into town and check out the local markets - should be fun. Hopefully the rain will hold out, but I´somehow doubt it.
