Our 1st full day in Cusco started early....Really early! We were up at 5am eating breakfast preparing for our day long tour of Cosco City. It was a very educationallyand culturally rewarding day. So much history, so many antiquities it was inspiring an study desire in me to study more about Incan history. More to come.....
