Capital of Incas

We took a horse riding tour of the ruins of the inca empire around the city. As Drue was heavier then normal they got him a special horse (this one did not like drue, as you can imagine). The horse literally tried to throw him off a few times. Apart from that horse riding was fun, they took us through mountain regions along cliffs (not dramatic but still) and streams, pretty (stressed me out a little bit, these horses are smart, they knew how to go about it). But man I donot know how drue's horse managed the climbing part (we had already paid money for it there was no going back). The city is lovely, it had shimla or darjeeling (towns in india) feel to it, people are nice, very ethic overall a nice place to experience peruvian culture (the people here call themselves cuscanians and speak chechuan an unwritten launguage from incan time).

From cuzco we took a train to the village of macchupicchu to visit ruins of Machu Picchu.
