Waking up early I decided to take a morning walk around the Plaza San Francisco. The plaza was bustling in anticipation of the Inti Raymi festivities, the Incan festival in honor of the sun god (more about this later). After my walk I headed back to the hostel and met up with the rest of the group. An hour or so later we walked to the Plaza de Armas and caught the procession of the festival. We followed the procession from the main Plaza up towards Sacsayhuamán. On the way we were treated to fantastic views of the city and the aroma of freshly cooked food.
