We were up at 5am this morning! We took a 30 minute flight to Cuzco, which is 3400 metres above sea level. It is good practise to get acclimatised before we hit the Inca Trail in a couple of days time.
We didn't do much today as it is best to take things easy when adjusting to altitutde but we visited the main square and walked up and down some hills. It is difficult to breath at times and we were often pausing to get our breaths back!
This place is beautiful! We're returning here for a few days after the Inca Trail to really explore the place!

We went out to dinner and Kate & Jimmy decided to go halves on the local speciality - guinea pig! As you can see from the photo, it was cooked whole (including the head and paws!!) The chef then cut it into smaller pieces (but it still had the paws and some fur on it!!) I did try a small piece (you can´t get large bits of meat off it!). It was ok but wouldn´t want to eat it again! Glad I tried it though!
