Day 8 - Cusco and back to Lima

When we go on vacation, we sleep early and wake up early. This time in Cusco, there was big window next to the bed. After waking up spent some time looking out and sorting some pictures. We got ready and went for breakfast.

After breakfast we had 2-3 hours so me and Shri decided to go around the time one last time while kids stayed in hotel. Those were memorable hours just to wonder around anywhere we wanted. We were appreciating each and every structure we see from Inca time. Cusco is great combo of modern plus ancient architecture. We took lot of pictures and did last shopping of chase which Ram wanted to buy. Spanish vs. Inca chase.

We came back to hotel and checked out to catch flight back to Lima. We had some time while Shri was doing online checkin for Boston flight we talked with family.

We reached Lima and we had almost half a day left and we had list to do 😊 we returned the phone given by our travel agency. We couldn't do paragliding when we were in Lima since there was no wind. Today we were lucky since there was wind and paragliding was open. We went there from airport and we were surprised to see the number of people and parashutes in the sky. There were many.

Ram wanted to do it so he did.

Up in the sky

After this we went to Hucca Pucallana which is pyramid built by Lima people. It is built with sea shells and mud, built 1300 years ago. It is in very good condition and amazes us.

After this we went to fountain garden which made our evening memorable.

Now it was dinner time. We decided to go to Peruvian buffet with Peruvian dance show. It was worth every penny and surely last thing in Peru. Good and dances were amazing.

After this we headed to airport to fly back.

I would definitely like to go back again.

Puerto Rico - Day 4

Today we woke up and directly went to beach walk. It was our breakfast our day, we went to a very fancy place on Isla Verde. Food was unique and tasty! Walk to castle through stunning old San Juan Bobba is must! We got ready and headed to castle visits. Both the castles in old San Juan are along ocean, built by local Indian people and then taken over by Spanish people. They are huge and in good space. Views and structure is breathtaking! We booked an underwater walking tour ( introductory scuba) so we went there in the afternoon. I was scared in the beginning but did it later in second round. They give bread in your hand so lots of fishes come near you, it was amazing experience. The resort where it was located was very beautiful! We ended our day by exploring Condado area and eating Asian food! Again the food was great! Day 5 link http://ourweekendsdiary.blogspot.com/2023/02/puerto-rico-day-5.html

The Northern Lights: Nature’s Own Festivity Our odyssey began with a promise to witness the ethereal beauty of the Northern Lights . Over the course of seven nights, the sky was our canvas for four nights, each display more breathtaking than the last. The auroras, with their vibrant ballet of colors, became the silent narrators of our nights. Helsinki: A Birthday Celebration In Helsinki, we celebrated Shri's birthday, a day marked by history and gastronomy. The old town’s architecture whispered stories of the past, while the majestic churches stood as sentinels of serenity which he is always fascinated by.
