Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Update May 23rd: After many hours (about 30) we have now reached Cusco, and we have all (up to now) managed to acclimatise to the altitude with no apparrent problems. We have a further day of acclimatisation tomorrow, and a warm up trek on Sunday before starting the trek proper on Monday. Cusco seems a very nice city, and our lodgings are quite central, and the weather is currently really good (cold at night though), and it currently looks as if the weather should be reasonably clear and dry for our trek (the overnight forecast though is giving around -5 degrees C overnight when we are on the trek. I will try and check in at the end of the trek if I can get online again. Update: May 20th 2008: Tomorrow (May 21st) I head to Heathrow Airport ready for my Flight to Peru on May 22nd to embark on my Trek. While I have met my traget amount raised of £3000, I will still accept donations on this web page and in person, any cheques should be payable to "Marie Curie Cancer Care". May I thank everyone who has supported me in raising the total mentioned above, particularly Steve Smith at Astro Communications, Garry at GH Electrical and the Bourne Leisure Caravan Parks on the Yorkshire Coast. Many thanks for all of your support. Paul P.S. I am still raising money by recycling old mobile phones, all proceeds of this will be doanted to my fundraising target. If you have a phone to recycle, either drop it in to me, or email me at paulgray@bigfoot.com for details of how to recycle your phone.
