Quisiera una habitacion (I would like a room)
Tim did well with his Spanish on more than one occassion securing us rooms over the phone with no English by either party...
At times, I was happy with a room where my bed didn't fall apart and there was a 60% chance of a warm shower but mostly the rooms were clean, comfortable with private bathrooms (banoprivado) and 75% chance of hot water. Most of the time our stay was in the most amazing of locations!

Sacred Valley (Peru) by bicycle (September)

I doubt that the Inca travelled by bicycle but they should have, its a great way to see the sights (even if we only rode downhill).

The day out started with a visit to Sacsayhuaman a magnificent Inca site overlooking Cusco.

We also visited Tambo Machay, water spring and "the Inca bath" with a late lunch at Pisac.

Barb and Tim stayed in the valley and came home next day by local bus

Ok, you have seen the photos of Pisco Sour, coffee, Coca tea and here are others.
