YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN THERE


The dancers at Carnaval were unreal. The floats were even better. Show started at 10.30pm and went until daylight, long after we had all left.
There´s a rumour that my family are going to sabotage this blog site. They want to tell you the real truth. Scary.
We´re now in Cusco, 1 hour flight from Lima. They warned us about altitude sickness here so we´re taking it very easy to start with. I´m finding I´m a little dizzy which I guess is part of it. We´ve arranged a trip through the valley tomorrow and then on Friday we will head up to Machu Picchu where we will stay overnight before returning to Cusco.
We are staying at the Colonial Palace Hotel for US$7 per person per night includes breakfast. We have a room for our family with a private ensuite.
Lunch just cost us 50 Sol which is about $20, 5 of us had more than we could eat.
In 2 weeks we´ll be in Miami.

Hey Keastys!

The "official" BAK entrant list came out today at http://www.bak.org/2006/entrylist.html

You two are the only "foreign" registrants!

Weather's getting better up here, so we're getting ready to start riding. I did do 45 mintutes on a stationary today already.
