Cuzco, a major historical town from the Incas.  High up in the Andean mountains, at about 3400 meters (11,000 feet).  Town of about 600,000 people nestled in a valley between light green bur rather bare mountains.

We have settled in our new home for the next weeks. Lovely people.

Weather is unique, a cold wind, but the sun burns like I have seldom felt before. Fantastic blue sky; nothing like altitude!

Tomorrow the intro at the new school.,pictures soon follow.

What a day! Early up, 4 hours of driving through desert in a van to get to a peninsula for a wonderful boat ride (thought that Peru was all like Machu Picchu (green and steep hills – now I know better).

Also discovered the sand-dunes on home-made buggies and sand surfed.  Beautiful sunset with the family.
