Hola, So since the last blog entry we recovered our legs by lazing around cusco for another day: going to the market, sunbathing on BOTH plazas reading our books and guide books planning our next adventures. It is really sad sitting on the plzas and having either very old people with their back narly horizontal trying to sell us water melon or pineapple, to very young kids (who should b at school!) trying to sell us things like chewing gujm, postcards or fingr ...

Hola all, So we all got back from our horseriding/mountain biking with sore bums and glowing faces but it was well worth it! We had to cycle uphill very steeply for quite some time at the start and I can honestly say I think my heart was going to come out of my chest. I blame the altitude/ heat/ steepness oh yer and perhaps the fact that I haven´t been most active since the marathon. But luckily the rest of the tour wasn´t as bad with many gradual inclines sh...
