These pictures are from the top of Huayna Picchu. You can see Machu Picchu below us in the picture on your left.
4 of us from the group including Shawn and I decided to get crazy and hike Huayna Picchu which is the taller of the mountains you see in this picture.
This Blog might be a little backwards, but its been a long week. We have done alot of touring in the past couple weeks, but our last trip was by far the most magnificent. Shawn´s family came to visit us, it was so nice to have people to speak english with. We did a whole lot of touring right here around Cajamarca, and a whole lot of shopping to go with it. Then we all flew to Lima and then Cusco last friday and saturday and finally we reached our final destination of Machu Picchu. I had been reading a whole lot about it before our trip and it is true that you can never describe it through pictures or words, no matter how good you are, it feels unreal even when you are standing amoung those ruins! It was truly amazing.
I tried to take a lot of pictures, but wasn´t able to capture what i wanted.
The Incas probably didn´t use these opening for seats, but they sure came in handy for a rest.
I will post our other adventures from cajamarca and cusco soon...
love stina
