Peru Trek Team Rose Bowl trip complete!

 

Today our team enjoyed a leisurely morning in Aguas Calientes and a nice lunch at Inkaterra. After exploring the cobblestone streets and alleys around town bustling with markets and retaurants, we left on the train in the afternoon and made our way back to Cusco. We wrapped up the evening with a farewell dinner in a beautiful colonial restaurant serving delicious Peruvian cuisine and Sushi. We were all tuckered out after our trek and visit to Machu Picchu so after lots of hugs, we retired in the ever welcoming El Mercado hotel to rest up for another travel day tomorrow, this time returning to our respective homes.

We will all bring back a new perspective of Peru and all of its wonders, both historic, natural and personal. What an amazing country and people and what a great group to share the experience with trekking through the Andes. I feel extremely lucky to have had the opportunity to get to know and trek with such fine folks. Thank you all!

Until the next adventure, be well and Salud!
