A TripAdvisor™ TripWow slideshow of a travel blog to Cusco, Peru by TravelPod blogger Dzasta titled "Cusco" Dzasta’s travel blog entry: "Im back in Cusco, just hangin around waiting to go to the jungle in a few days. It was such a great morning this morning that I walked to the churck and left my jacket and windcheater. I thought I dont need them any more cos Im going to the tropical jungle. I caught a collectivo back to Urubamba with the porters from SAS who had just come off the Inka trail. You recon the smell wasnt something to behold. Change at Urubamba to bus for the rest of the trip to Cusco. Half hour in the colectivo and 2 1/2 hr in the bus and only cost 5 soles. Peru has the best bus system I have ever seen. From top of the range like a plane to local they are excellent. When I got to Cusco I thought I knew where I was going and in fact found my way to the hostel I stayed at last time. They are full so I am staying next door. Good thing I know these streets upside down. When we got to Cusco, and the higher altitude, it was freezing so you guessed it I had to buy another jacket. I can feel the altitude in my breathing, it is very laboured. This arvo I had a nana nap then went and looked around the old part of town and some of the squares I missed last time. Im loving looking at the great big doors and all the old balconies, just like Nepal. Tomorrow I am just hanging around again then off to the jungle. I have 4 days at Tambopata, then couple in Puerto Maldonado ...
