Sunrise over the Andes
I’m back in Cusco, after two days at Machu Picchu, hanging out on the top of the world. It’s hard to believe that people actually lived there, and that they built the things they built in the places they built them (for instance, agricultural terraces thousands of feet up on the top of vertical stone cliffs.)
I’m exhausted, because we got up at dawn to watch the sun rise over the mountain and climb Huana Picchu (the really steep looking peak in the back of all the pictures, that looks like you’d be insane to climb), so I’m going to bed, but I uploaded the best of my pictures so far for your viewing pleasure.
Just click on the photo gallery. There’s even a chinchilla!
