Friday 21st April
Colca Canyon. Woke earlyish
and made our way to a viewpoint in Colca Canyon
to see Condors flying in their morning routine. 
From a slow start, there was suddenly about 7 young (brown) and older (black and white) Condors, one of which was being warned off by a brave eagle. We stayed until about 10am, mesmerised by the elegance of these creatures.
Descended to Chivay town which was a bit ramshackle and very ‘touristy’ with the sellers and unfortunately people wanting money for photo with alpacas or an eagle. We declined.
Returned to Arequipa, Hotel Plaza Residence, where we had left
our main bags. Sadly the Roman bath spa
underneath was out of action.
