J.R.R. Tolkien once wrote: "Not all those who wander are lost". This has become something of a mantra for my life which brings me to the question: Can wanderlust be in your genetic code? If so, then that would explain mine... I have always loved adventure and travel, even as a kid. I've discovered that the older I get, the more adventuresome I become so, if this trend continues, I'll probably be trying to get on a space shuttle flight when I'm 80. In the meantime, I'm happy to share my growing adventures - enjoy! If you want to subscribe to my blog, I recommend using my Google Groups... full info

Baby Llama at Machu Picchu

The llamas that hang out there are so tame that you can pet them. This little guy was walking along the wall and pretty much stopped to pose for me.(Day 4)

This is the view from the other side of Machu Picchu looking back towards the entrance (Machu Picchu mountain is behind me). (Day 4)

A native Peruvian that stopped for a bite to eat in the garden area where a bunch of us were sitting. (Day 4)

Machu Picchu

This is more or less the kind of shot that you tend to see in all the travel brochures - really is much bigger. The big mountain in the back is Machu Picchu mountain. (Day 4)

Deb: congrats for making it! And, many thanks for the OUTSTANDING pics. Now tell me the truth, did YOU really take these? Glad it's all going so well. I'm jealous. Now, I've got my own adventure: Las Vegas. The only sights there are topless women. Darn.

Spectacular!
These photos are too spectacular for words! I am so impressed that you have made it, so congratulations! For years I have enjoyed reading about other people's climbing adventures ("Into Thin Air," for example)... now I actually know someone who is having those adventures! I know that climbing is something I would have enjoyed at a younger time in my life, so I absolutely love reading your journal entries. I love your writing style. Lots of vivid detail and a great sense of humor. Thanks for sharing with us armchair travelers! Oh, and Happy Birthday, too!
