Breathtaking Colca Canyon.....in more ways than one

Neither words or pictures can describe how spectacular Colca Canyon is. Said to be twice as deep as the Grand Canyon it also is the playground of the Andean Condor.
On our way to the Canyon we stopped at the village Chivay.
As gorgeous as the day was, it is one I will not remember fondly as I woke up to this day suffering from altitude sickness. By lunchtime the medicos administered several bouts of oxygen and all the pharmaceutical and herbal remedies available - it was not good. It seems to be settling and I hope I can do the Lake Titicaca tour tomorrow.
