Team Machu Picchu
Matt, Jenya, Melanie and Bill getting fired up about the one of the top 7 Wonders of the World! Happy Spring Time Everyone!!!
It is actually the winter season down here in Lima so it is quite foggy on most days. We have about three weeks until we head back to the States so we are starting to plan our return. One of the things we have been doing is trying to find an apartment. We are a little nervous in taking an apartment "Site Unseen."
Every since we arrived in Peru, we have been asked the question, "Have you been to Machu Picchu yet???" We would respond with, "No....not yet, but it is our plan sometime in the future." Matt and Jenya are friends from San Francisco who just can down to see us and they were interested in a hike in the Cusco area that included checking out Machu Picchu. Since the famous Inca Trail Trek was full, we decided to go off the beaten path and do the Lares Trek which is a 4 day/3 night adventure. It was absolutely beautiful with our group of nine being the only tourists we saw until we arrived at Machu Picchu.
The Lares Trek package that we did was basically 3 days hiking with the 2nd part
Cusco Tourists
This photo was not staged. of day three spent taking a bus and train combo to Machu Picchu. Machu Picchu is a pretty amazing place and it looks so much more incredible than the photos we took.
Oh...it looks like there is a new apartment listing on Craigslist! I better check it out!
See you soon!
Bill and Melanie
