Day 194 Cusco: Arrange flight for home and Inca Trail tour

In the morning, we go for our tickets for home and find they are not issued yet.  Turns out we paid too much!!  The girl charged us an extra 4% for use of American Express card, and she shouldn’t have on the international ticket.  So, we do another credit card swipe for $1700, this time, and then follow her in a taxi to the main office where we get the tickets.  The flight to Lima is another $58 each.

We also book and pay a four-day trip to Machu Picchu on the Inca Trail with S.A.S.  We chose them over United Mice because they leave tomorrow instead of Friday.

We buy some sheet plastic and tape and return to our hotel to wrap the bikes.  Rachel goes souvenir shopping.  This morning we met Jo and Adam in front of the cathedral, go out to dinner with them tonight.  We decide on pizza in a restaurant on the plaza.  Great views of the square with its nice houses and churches.  

We both like Cusco, it’s a beautiful place. And we think would make a great base for a while.
