    Huge avocados!
    Cute little family Coffee tour, the family showed us how they pick the beans from their little farm, shell them, ferment and dry them and then roast. Not that hard actually!
    Couple hours at nearby Cocamayo hot springs, quite nice and beautiful surrounding mountains. Then back for lunch and our short hike today up to the next stop. Steep but short up to the top of the mountain nearby.
    Amazing views of Machu Picchu across the other side of the Valley!!! So beautiful. Watched the sun coming down and looked through a telescope to see the cross in Machu Picchu
    Good soup for dinner.
    Amazing stars! Milky Way, huge asteroid or something burning up
    Wake up to sunrise, incredible experience! Saw a cool toucan aswell.
