Landed in Cusco at an altitude of over 11500 feet. I remember that 12000 feet is the cut off for flying without oxygen. Stepping off the plane our lungs bitterly complained. It feels like you have flu with a dull headache (mild symptoms of altitude sickness).
Acclimatizing by slowly walking around and seeing the sites - climbing a flight of steps feels like running a marathon at km 38.
Great group of people in our tour with our guide Richie - they are Incredibly supportive and we are enjoying spending time with them.
Still no luggage!
