Aguas Calientes

Aguas Calientes. Our third visit to mineral baths. $22 CDN a night. A bit run down (as you can see the minerals are tough on the plumbing) but consciously clean. Community built. It looked to us that for many who came out by micro (bus) during the day, this was part of regular life, possibly making up for no hot water at home.
