Cusco & Sacsaywaman
May 2003: So I
ask myself, “Self why the hell you heading to Peru?” That was the mood as I boarded the plane
in Las Angeles & everything was
already in Spanish. After a brief
stop in Lima, the capital city of Peru, we landed in Cusco, the one time
Incan capital, and I realized why it is I wanted to come. So began our journey… The first 2 pics of Cusco were taken prior
to the big hike during the day of acclimatization. Pics 3-10 were taken in and around Sacsaywaman, north (and
above) the city of Cusco after the big hike.
