You would LOVE this place. The narrow cart path resting on an ancient Inca terrace is just the beginning...the place was hewn out of the mountain by Cecilia's (the owner) brother and it's been a family's love child ever since. I even got a
thank you email from her for my review on tripadvisor. Cool place & neat lady.

Don't you love their enthusiasm? They thought they were going to get rich having their picture taken.

Thanks. It makes looking at all those waterfalls a little less painful, knowing that they're using recycled water and not fresh.

Thanks for all the comments--you can see we loved the whole exhausting experience! As for jacksonbms---that was after they'd torn down the temple---THEN they built their own on top.

I confess that, to date, I have been lukewarm on your stops on this trip. Cool but not my style. This is the exception. Your excitement for the area really comes out and your photos are fantastic. This is one of our first trips whenever
Tammy retires. We can't wait. Congratulations on getting there.

Nice review of Machu Picchu but please don't say spaniards destroy everything in the old inca territory. If you are in Cuzco you could visit Coricancha Temple where spaniards built a church on top of an Inca building. That's just one exampl

I read recently that this place is the #1 dream destination in the world. Hopefully Kumi and I will get there someday. What do the locals say is the best time of year to go there?

You know they say it's genetic--I thought of you when I read that. Sorry...we'll just blame it on grandma Slater.I felt so awesome at 8,000 feet today (climbing Machu Pichu)! It's like I'm a new person. Even 5 days at 11,400 didn't acclimat
e me--In fact I was getting worse every day. I'm really hoping when we go there after the Sacred Valley that I'll be okay because it will have been more like 2 weeks.

You should feel really awesome when you get back to sea level! I get so sick when I go up to granite peak, it is like you described. I just want to die every few feet. I won't go up that high any more, not without a lot of time to acclimate
to the altitude.
