The excursion to Cusco (11,000 feet) started with a flight from Lima (at Sea-level) . I was looking at these two planes thinking that they were stuck together due to an accident, but they are just parked quite closely.
Lily - a few hours outside of Cusco on the way to the Sacred Valley of the Inkas

A famous market with lots of things for both tourists and locals.

Local people are eager to have their pictures taken, so they can ask for some money in dignity.

Our hotel (Sol Y Luna) near the Valley of the sacred Inkas. A wonderful hotel, like all hotels on this trip
