We met with the three Belgians last night when they came back to the hostel. Having stayed in Aguas Calientes an extra day they had experienced Machu Picchu covered in clouds and rain. Which means we had been so lucky going there and having great weather during our visit.
This morning Mikkel and Jonas went to the Cusco market since they were both up early. They walked around there and experienced the usual morning market exercising all the senses a bit extra when you see blood, parts of dead animals, steam from 40 different pots cooking warm food for breakfast and so many other things. They had freshly squezed juice at one of the many women offering a variety of juices before heading home for breakfast at the hostel. Yes, there are lots of areas where Cusco feels like a normal city - you just have to find them.
The Belgians left the hostel to do some city sightseeing, we said goodbye, had lunch at the restaurant next door before we headed for our night bus to Ica. Next stop Huachachina. A small desert oasis close to the coast. No Inca, no trails - maybe a bit of sandboarding and definitely a lot of relaxing.
