CUSCO AND THE SACRED VALLEY

We flew out very early the next morning and Ron and Sergio met us at the airport without the issues of a strike! WOO HOO! Sergio took us up over the hills and into the Sacred Valley. We stopped at a location near the top that had various camelids and beautiful handmade items.

We were also able to feed the animals. They really enjoyed it!

Sergio showed us the various fibers and what was used to dye them to the perfect color!

Walking around Pisac once again gave us a feel for the Andean/Incan/Peruvian people and their lifestyle.

Reflection of our last evening at Palacios Nazarenas. I’m ready to go back!

Larkin and I tried on shoes in Pisac and found some wonderful shoes but alas they did not accept credit cards and my supply of American cash was almost non- existent! When we arrived back at Palacios Nazarenas we were told where we might find Incan shoes – woo hoo! We did! Next time more cash!

Home…we were ready to get home but first a negative covid test. We awaited the results overlooking what must have been a chapel! After two weeks in Peru with masks everywhere we went – we were NEGATIVE! Home awaited us! We were ready to get home, pack up and drive Larkin to her new home in Blacksburg, Virginia!
