Had intended to hop on and off local buses to see the Sacred Valley but have realised it would take 10 times as long to do anything as they wend their way through every little town and take ages. So, not quite in the spirit of the intrepid traveller we have booked Arturo for 1 and a half days as our driver! After a breakfast of freshly squeezed orange juiced , a scrambled egg (literally) and coffee set off to see Sacsaywaman, Q`uenqo, PucaPucaara and Tambomachay. Have to go, more later.

Sacsaywaman, which I was told initially means Sexy woman, actually means `satiate falcon`and is an amazing inca stone structure . Qùenqo about 2 miles from Cusco is a sacred sanctuary to fertility. PucaPucara means a red fort and contains farming terraces, aquaducts and roads, water springs that cascade down and Tambomachay had two aqueducts providing water all year round. All this built between 1450 and 1540!
