Oh my god it´s the Inca Trail tomorrow!!!

Hola again,

After Jase and Selina putting pressure on Matt I have finally been able to write first. Well done guys!

We´ve done masses in the last few days so it´s difficult to know what to write about. We went out to some islands on Lake Titicaca and stayed over night with a family on Amantile Island. It was really amazing. They barely had electricty and everything was really basic, but they were really beautiful people. The whole island was a hill and it was at over 4000m.....jeez that was hard work.

I´m uploading a photo of Matt with our Mama and her daughter. His head is higher than the roof!!! I´m also uploading one of the mum with her little baby....how cute is she??

We´re now in Cusco (the original Inca City). It´s got loads of cobbled streets and is really lovely. We have been buying scarves and gloves to keep us warm on the trail. Our 4 day hike begins tomorrow. I´m a little nervous as it´s so high and so long, but i´m also really excited. Here´s hoping I make it to the end!!

Anyhoo, thanks so much for all of your comments. It´s really great to hear from everyone.
We´ll do another update as soon as we're back (Friday) and let you know how it went.

Sx

It all looks and sounds amazing, apart from the vomit and height sickness of course! Best of luck for the hike, looking forward to read how it went and see more photos!

Lots of love to both,
