Rafting outside of Cusco

So I'm in Peru now and have been in Cusco for the last few days. It's a great base to get to know the area,the country and get out exploring on many adventures. Of course there's Machu Pichu nearby but there also great hikes in other ruins nearby the city and some great fun adventure sports to take part in. Along with two Israeli friends, we had an awesome day out rafting and zip lining.

The river was super full and fast. So many crazy rapids, some of the biggest I've been on. Water was hitting us from all over. No one fell over, but we each were knocked into the raft at least once. Feel the power of the river!

We stopped and played some fun games along the river bank and my dead toe nail was ripped off. Don't have to worry about the nail any more. At least the foot was numb from the river. We named ourselves Team Alpha and had many a raucous cheer along the way. Great crew and lots of laughs, fun and adrenaline along the way.
