Cusco - Lima

When you land at Cusco airport you are literally transported to another world - you are at 3310 metres. The first thing I noticed was how bright everything seemed. I wanted to put on two pairs of sunglasses. There were bottles of oxygen for sale in the airport. When I walked up the 4 flights steps at the Cusco Plaza 1 Hotel I wished I had bought some O2! Wow, it hit me like a ton of bricks. But aftere 5 muins laying breathless on my bed I was ok to walk around VERY slowly.
