When we arrive in Cusco, we find the elevation a little taxing
but manage to get around, note the shopping bag. |

At least someone is smiling that early in the morning |

Headed up to the divide. The train is using real switchbacks
where it drives to a dead end, someone switches the tracks behind
you, you back up on to a higher track, back and forth in a "Z" pattern.

Not the nicest part of town. |

Just below the summit, to the right of the buildings, there are people
who hiked up there, can you see them ?

After the train attendants had served us all, they showed us some
native dance. |
