Rough Draft Itinerary (with dates)

  1. Leave Lax Saturday May 17th
  2. Land Sunday May 18th - spend the night in Lima - have cuy
  3. Monday May 19th - fly to cusco
  4. Tuesday May 20th - hike
  5. Wed May 21 - hike
  6. Thurs May 22 - hike
  7. Fri May 23 - spend the night in Aquas Calientes
  8. Sat may 24 - fly to lima

  10. Mon May 26th - fly to slc

I would like to stay another night in Cusco either before we hike or afterwards. We could fly to lima the same day we fly to the states. OR we could fly to Cusco on Sunday May 18th (gives us an extra day to adjust to the altitude).
