We arrived Cusco (3,400m/11,150ft) around noon time after a 52min flight from Lima. Checked-in to Hotel Encantada and had lunch at Dino's. Then we went around Plaza Armada to buy missing things we would need for our Amazon trip.
Just so happened they were celebrating Virgen de la Natividad that afternoon and the next day.
Dinner was at our hotel.
