Hello!
Today we had another great day exploring Cusco city. We started at the Temple of the Sun and then headed above the city to Sacsayhuamán! The quality of the stone work tells you the importance of a site and it was exquisite.
After, we headed back down into Cusco proper where there was a huge parade happening in the town square. Music, dancing and lots of colors! A sight to see. We got to explore one of the main cathedrals in the city square before lunch.
We had the afternoon to pack and do some last minute shopping before we hit the trail tomorrow.
We’re all headed to bed for a very early wake up and very much looking forward to starting our trek.

Everybody need beauty as well as bread, places to play and pray in, where nature may heal and cheer and give strength to the body and soul alike. John Muir 1912

Our life inside the snow globe continued today but got more comfortable as we dug in more completely. We dug our cooktent down further this morning so that standing puts us level with ground. Down that deep the wind cease to matter as much and we have sealed ourselves into a quite cozy spot. We moved through breakfast before retreating to the tents for the majority of the day. We made a lot of progress on our reading lists and did a fair bit of napping and eating to pass the time. We are hopeful that the trend will improve tomorrow and allow us to jump back down to 9,600 to retrieve our cache. Then we will have more exciting news to report, but for now, we are warm, fed, and happy, patiently waiting for the mountain to say we may pass.
Which team is Bethany Gray on?
