Date: 08 - 18 march (incl Machu Picchu)
Cusco is a beautiful city in the south of Peru, and the city you go to before and after Machu Picchu.
We spent a week or so in Cusco, walking around, taking lots of pictures, shopped at the markets (we ended up sending 8 kilos home each, most of it lama stuff), ate at the many good restaurants and partied.
Cecilie turned 24 in Cusco, and lucky her celebrated her birthday alone (not completely alone, she made some friends) because me and Camilla were in bed with all different kind of deceases. lovely.
Where to eat:
Cicciolina! Best place to eat in Cusco. We had Cecilie´s birthday breakfast, lunch and dinner here. D E L I C I O U S.
