Yesterday evening Laura was given some stern warnings by our Doctor about our schedule which involves flying from about sea level (Lima) direct to 3,400m (Cusco) - instead of going up to no more than 2,500m first and then ascending no more than another 500m per day. Well, perhaps we should have planned it better, and certainly not compounded the problem by flying down to the Amazon Basin and back up in the middle of our time-at-altitude, but too late to change plans now. We will just have to be sure we take it easy and hope that our anti-altitude-sickness medication does its job with no side effects.
