Cuzco, Peru
8th March 2006 - Day 342
Picked up from our hostel at 6:20 to start our first day of four to Machu Picchu. Stopped off at Ollantaytambo to pick up some last minute supplies i.e. cocoa candy (good for altitude sickness) and a walking stick for myself. Set off from Patallacta KM82 the walk was pretty easy we stopped after 1 hour or so for some lunch and two hours later got walking again - so pretty relaxed (on this day anyway). Camped at Wayllabamba at about 3 pm....
