More Peru pictures - Cusco

Question

In a previous post, I talked about Lima. We stayed for a day and then were scheduled to fly to Cusco. However, the day before our Peruvian Air flight, the airline was shut down by the National Aeronautical Administration. However, we were very fortunate to get our tickets for this flight honored by L A N. (with the help of a great travel agent and generous tipping).

Flying

We are screening at the clinic in Cusco.
