The flight to Cuzco was awesome- we stayed awake the whole time so we got to really appreciate the mountain scenery. I was sitting next to a couple of students from Ireland, and they were kind enough to snap some great pics for us through the window of the Andes beneath us.
Our hotel in Cuzco is great. The beds are hard and it's a little noisy, but the accommodations are clean and there is even some hot water. Yay! Dinner last night was Pizza Wasi which is just plain awesome (we had it last year and it was a favorite). Breakfast this morning was at the hotel, and it consisted of the yogurt drink that Peruvians love so much, mate de coca, and the bread which we in Pre-Meds in Peru affectionately refer to as "llama bagels" (apparently the real name is bread of Cuzco, lame.)
Okay, so we are getting ready to go explore the Plaza D'Armas. We saw a cool monastery with a very interesting art museum inside yesterday, which we had missed last time- there might be other treasures waiting to be found, we'll find out. :) We leave this afternoon for Urubamba where will begin setting up our health campaigns by organizing our medicines and miscellaneous supplies at the ProPeru office there.
