In a few more years, materialism and massage parlours will have ruled Cuzco longer than the Incas did their empire. That bit of conquest only lasted about 40 years before the Spanish came and rearranged it, but the Inca capital is now firmly in the hands of the tourists and trinkets guild.
The hostel is unbearably loud; I'm only somewhat bearably sick; soon we start a four-day hike to Machu Picchu.
