Today was a rest day used to explore Cuzco, find a parking spot for the bike for the next few days and to go over lil fatty to make sure that nothing has come loose as a result of the bad roads of the last few weeks.

Jax and family explored the town whilst I got a shot of the bike in front of the church at the main square of the town.

The afternoon was lazy but Jax and I went for a long walk around the town in the evening before dinner. Cuzco is a lively, vibrant little town (population 500,000) and really beautiful architecture and culture. We had a super dinner at the Palacio Nazarenas which had a very unique menu made up primarily of local ingredients and recipes…VERY DELICIOUS.

Be a sport Many of us have the means and wherewithal to undertake the dreams we want but elect to choose otherwise, many however, do not and that is the purpose of this plea. Afrika Tikkun (http://afrikatikkun.org// ) is a South African non governmental, non profit charity organisation run by the Lubner family that in essence does just that; re-provide the possibility to dream and to create the possibility of turning those dreams into a reality.

Unlike many pleas of this nature, I am not looking for any kind of sponsorship for my trip, but I am looking for your donation, regardless of its size to Afrika Tikkun. Please pledge generously as this is a fantastic cause that will assist them to provide food, care, education, health and social services to those that are desperately in need.
