Ahh...our Peruvian adventures are wrapping up. With the Inca Trail and Machu Picchu completed, we're off on our way home. BUT not without a few more memories!
A bus ride down the mountain later, we find ourselves in Aqua Calientes.
With a lot (like 6 hours) of time to kill before our train back to Ollantaytambo (and then another bus ride back to Cusco), we check out Aquas Calientes' markets, their few sights, and do a lot of sitting around.
Back in Cusco, Dave decides he isn't ready to leave for Lima yet so he opts to spend a night in a Peruvian 'clinic' instead. Next morning, he's ready to go though!
Leaving Machu Picchu...we hit up the food stand for some refreshments to hold us over until dinner and look over our passports with our newest stamps! And once we're in town, Pizza! Non camp food :-) And Soda!!!

Lots of goodbyes - to our trusty walking sticks and then to our hotel in Cusco

We make it to Lima on our way home back to the US. No massages at the Marriott, but thats ok...Dave'll make it up to us somehow... ;)
Just in time for lunch! Dave's feeling better and ready to take on Pizza, Wings, and a Coke!
With more time to kill and left over Peruvian soles to spend, we played cards and sampled coffee and chocolate that David wasn't allowed to! :-)
