Back in Cusco

Made it all the way back to Cusco in record time. Talking to the taxi driver on the way to the hostel it sounds like they felt the earthquake quite strongly here - lots of buildings swaying, but no damage.

Sadly from the sounds of things Huachachina, the oasis just outside of Ica - place of sandboarding and dune buggying, has suffered some quite heavy damage and quite a bit of Ica has been flattened.

Anyway, back to Cusco - I'd forgotten what the altitude was like. I feel terrible, hopefully it will only take a couple of days to get acclimatised.
