Peru - Colca Canyon - Day 2

Today we got up early for a sunrise hike, while pretty, it is never that exciting in my opinion.

Then we headed back to the Condor Cross and saw quite a few condors trying to find thermals to get altitude. The best was a mother and father watching their adolescent practice taking off and lading.

Then we visited a tiny town, Maca, that’s sinking a meter a year with all the earthquakes in the area. You could see two huge cracks in the hillside overlooking the town.

After lunch, we took a seven hour bus ride from Chivay to Puno on Lake Titicaca.
