Fun weekend – Alec Shimell

After a very long and busy weekend, we are back to the beginning of a brand new week. Looking forward, a couple of us are still going to try to play soccer tonight with the San Blas Spanish school. Tomorrow (Tuesday) there is a very big festival of the sun that is celebrated all over Cusco. Over this long weekend we went on a couple of tours. On Saturday we went horseback riding for a long time and visited different historical sites, I.e Saqsaywaman and other different popular tourist sites. All though the horseback riding was fun, I did get the mean horse who kicked 2 other horses and would not listen to my commands. On Sunday, we fed llamas and alpacas and drove to about 6 places yesterday and visited many more inka archaeological sights and had a great buffet for lunch. I felt a little sick this morning and I have a headache but overall I am fine and this trip is fantastic!
