We flew into Cusco and met up with Pastor Willy at the airport. Cusco is at around 11,500 ft. and has beautiful views of the Andes mountain range. We walked around the town a bit, and really loved the main square, Plaza De Armas. It is definitely one of the most scenic cities we´ve ever visited. Anytime you look out you see the steep green Andes, and there are numerous lovely old buildings. Of course, being a relatively poor country, we were surrounded by street vendors and beggars all the time, but for the most part they weren´t too pushy.
For dinner we visited a Hare Krishna restaurant chain called Govinda, which was delicious. Definitely recommended for vegetarians who happen to visit. Its been alot of fun getting to know the folks from Be The Cause. Everyone is so friendly and easy to get along with. As a group we started a Secret Santa Random Act of Kindness project for the trip. Basically you try to do acts of kindness for a person whose name we drew. Its been fun both receiving and giving these little kindness gifts.
