The fabulous 4 all travelled to Cusco, known as the belly button of South America. We had a week to spare before Sarah´s arrival so we decided it was time to chillax and do a little bit of yoga every morning. Nic decided on doing a week of Spanish lessons whilst de decided on mountain biking and working on finding the best coffee house in Cusco (which she finally found on our last day there).

Cusco brought about some shedding of hair ... de decided to shave her legs and armpits since it had been 3 months and Nic decided on a hair cut. A sad Nicole returned from the hairdresser sporting a Peruvian mullet which luckily we were able to convert into a trendy bob without any trouble.

With the arrival of Sarah (and a new Vegemite supply) we were very excited to hear news of back home and we celebrated her joining us with beers and ron! We had a few days spare before heading to Machu Picchu so we visited a nearby village and spent a day learning more about the magical powers of the San Pedro cactus ... and what an amazing plant it is!
