We can´t access email here as it has a security disclosure and we can´t understand enough Spanish enough to know if we´re saving our passwords on the computer or not..so we´re not accessing it at all! So if you haven´t got an email from me..that´s why!

We´ve had a relaxing day today, in gorgeous, quaint Cusco..after all the excitement of the last week! Slept in, finished writing up my incomplete journal, read some more about the history of Cusco and Machu Picchu and met our group for lunch at this great local restaurant, called Kinta (restaurant)¨Eulalia¨ which Jose and his wife Aimee took us to...
We met Andreas, the owner of the tour company, who said we had to claim our loss of accomodation from our insurance company...and he did it in such a charismatic way that later we wondered why we didn´t ask him any questions at all! No wonder he is god father to so many children in Cusco!!!
Then we just went back to our hotel to just RELAX!
I can´t believe my legs have already recovered! I don¨t have any aches and pains and now i´m itching to see if we can go on the Milford Sound Track in New Zealand when we´re there! (Greg´s doing a search now!)
Greg has sore legs..but is mostly ok. We´ve just so glad to have been able to succeed in doing this trek. It was such a challenge, but it has motivated us to continue TREKKING!!!! We loved it..and are looking forward to more adventures!
Cusco is such a beautiful city...We´re off to dinner tonight with Barb, Trish, David and Nada to a local haunt in Plaza De Armas that one of group has found..and tomorrow we´re off again....to Lake Titicaca. We´ll be staying in a local home so we´re looking forward to that..and learning a bit more Spanish.
Jim and Carla left to go back to Melbourne today..and Nada and David are heading off to Buenos Aris tomorrow.
It´s been so great to part of a group, to belong to a team, and to have some familiar people to talk with for the last week!
