Our last full day in Peru!
Right now we are in the beautiful city of Cusco!
We arrived here on the 23rd and on our first night we were lucky to be able to watch a choir singing Christmas carols in the cathederal. It was spectacular and really reminded us that Christmas was only a few days away!
On the 24th we visited the Christmas Eve markets which are only held once a year so we were very lucky to experience it! Whilst it was very crowded, all the gifts being sold were beautiful im sure we will all be bringing back alot of souvenirs!
Christmas Eve night we caught a bus and a train the Aguas Caliente.
Christmas Day was amazing. We woke up very early and caught the bus to Machu Pichu. Whilst it was a bit overcast, the view was specitacular! We also got a guided tour around the ruins which was very interesting! It was a wonderful way to spend Christmas Day!!
We then all went out for Christmas lunch where we distributed our Kris Kringle presents! Even though we were a bit homesick not being able to spend Christmas with our families, it was still a fantastic day and a really memorable way to spend Christmas!
We hope everyone had a fantastic Christmas!
We are all looking forward to seeing family and friends very soon!
