Woozy

Today I am very woozy! I have altitude sickness.

I'm in Cusco which is at 3,300m above sea level. It's just the oddest thing. I felt it within 20 seconds of getting off the plane... as if suddenly I was on a boat, it felt like the ground was moving really strongly under my feet. I felt dizzy and short of breath and got slight pins and needles in my arms, legs and face.

It's hard to do anything today, even walk. We got to the hotel and had coca tea, which is supposed to help. And that is coca as in cocaine, yes, not as in chocolate! It's in everything here. Not big quantities though I guess.

It's guinea pig for dinner tonight!!

That is all for now as I feel quite ill.
