Today we went on the Cuzco city tour and visited more Inca Temples than you can shake a stick at. If it moved the Incas built it a temple and not just any temple but a temple of extraordinary engineering and workmanship. Their building skills can only be matched by the Egyptians who built the Pyramids this is not true however of their artist skills - the diagrams they used to decorate their temples look like they've been drawn by 4 year olds. We travelled up to 3765 metres to see the Temple of the Water which has not helped the altitude sickness one bit but the cocoa tea is definitely having an effect (don't know whether that is good or bad!) Went out to dinner tonight and Nick had another family pet favourite the alpaca with chips he says it tasted like beef!
