Cusco Perú ... Feliz Navidad

Our arrival to Cusco was a slow one from Lima via bus, which took 24hrs, but we did this so we could adjust to the high altitude (3,400 feet above sea level) rather than flying ✈. Straight away we got out into the streets of the city, obviously taking it easy so our bodies could adjust. Its soo beautiful here with the cobbled roads and original Incan streets it doesn't feel like a big city at all. Its very touristy I may add but not at all a down point, as it feels safe and the locals are so friendly... And luckily speak quite good English. With it being Christmas here we spent Christmas eve celebrating local style, a nice meal out and walked around the Christmas markets. We couldn't let the tradition lie if buying each other a gift for Christmas day, so we decided to buy alittle something on the markets to surprise each other. So 2 of rules here to get a good priced gift is: be good at haggling, next rule speak good Spanish 😂😳 haha I tried but sure in the end I was ripped off lol... Oh well. We have a few trips planned to macchu pitchu in the coming days and also an amazon tour for after New year... So we will be spending new year here in Cusco whoop!😀🥂Read more
