Steyn, amazing stuff. I just discovered your blog this morning, sounds like you are both having an unforgettable experience. Kind of funny reading and seeing the pictures about your experiences in Peru,Machu Pichu,etc., I was reminded of a book you gave me years ago. "Fingerprints of the Gods", remember it at all? Anyways i just wanted to tell ya thanks for sharing the experiences and hope your travels remain safe.
