Great flight to Cusco - Lex took in the spectacular scenery from the window seat. Lucky. Zac and Milka were both at the airport to meet us -so we didn't have to negotiate the onslaught of taxi offers. Milka had managed to enlist the services of a larger than normal taxi - necessary to carry us and our luggage.
Lots of roadworks going on around the airport - making the drive even more of a 'thrill' than usual. Haven't worked out which side of the road they use ... because in fact, they use both. With vehicles parked on the side of narrow streets and cars going all over the place, I remember what a car horn signifies here in Peru ..... watch out I'm coming through. Lindy and Mike will remember what that means!
All good - we arrived safely. Their place is smaller than I imagined from pics but really nice and cosy. Gets quite a bit of sun ... but tiled floor is cold. (Jill, put those slippers in. I've been told the Spanish word for slippers several times but just can't remember).
We're spending the afternoon with Milka while Zac is at work. Should say that I am ... Lex is resting and waiting on a visit from Zac's doctor. He doesn't seem to be getting any better - altitude may be playing a part. I seem to be wavering between floating and spinning. Hope that's the worst of it for me ... but just have to wait it out. Will upload some photos soon. Dr has just arrived.
