So.... who were the Inca´s???

After nearly ten weeks in Peru and a further one and a half intensive days seeing more and more impressive Inca sites, I think I finally get who the Inca´s were, but lets not quiz me on it!
I am exhausted, 6 hours yesterday looking at Inca sites near to Cusco and then 12 hours today looking at ones further afield in the Sacred Valley, and each was more impressive than the last. I am now really looking forward to the next couple of days and seeing Machu Picchu for the grand finale!
I am hoping that tomorrow though they put me in a bus with some other english speaking people. For the past two days I have been just with Peruvians, which is fine, but it means the tour guide says everything in Spanish and then has to repeat it all for me in English. After a while you can see that everyone is getting a little bit fed up with the token English speaking person in the group, and I have no chance of dozing off or not looking interested because I know any moment the Spanish talk is going to change to English!
Such a shame I can´t put any pics on because you too, could see numerous Inca settlements!
I now have to see if I can find out what happened to my laundry, see if I can find out what ridiculously early hour I am leaving tomorrow and get my things packed up and sorted.... and give the young boy who works here in the evening a short english lesson..... I want to go to bed!
Will report on Macchu Pichu (I know I spell it differently every time, I am just hedging my bets!) in a couple of days and hopefully by then I will spell it correctly!
