 A different view and our balcony from the street in Cusco

The view from our balcony

 Cusco is in the Andes on 3.400 meters, which has some effects on the human body. The good news: oxygen was available at the hotel reception! The other good news: our hotel was earthquake safe and already in the first night we had the chance to test the hotel's safety features! The earthquake bothered us less than the traffic noise from the street...

Four PS (hp) seem to be enough for this load

On some streets we only saw Tuk-tuks
