56. to Cajamarca

Blog entries
To get to Cajamarca, back on the other side of the Andes, takes us a day, and because of the weather, we don't see a lot of the apparently beaytiful countryside.

42. the road to Cusco

Blog entries
We take our time to travel from Ayacucho to Cusco, through great Andean landscape and the local towns of Andahuaylas and Abancay.

40. to Ayacucho

Blog entries
We are leaving the desert for the mountains, full of green, full of plants unknown to us, and with the beautiful Andean scenery we had hoped for.
