Cusco At 11,000 ft altitude my first day there was to get my lungs adjusted. For the first few hours I was gasping for breath. Elizabeth just laughed at me. I saw a lot of visitors with oxygen masks! The altitude didn’t bother Elizabeth one bit! Lama love! Llama Shades Cusco street. Guinea Pigs waiting to be slaughtered for food!!! Cooked Guinea Pig. Can’t be any worse than killing any other animal I suppose!! Maybe vegetarian is on the books. No matter where we ate the food was fabulous.
