Day 6, part 2

At our 7 pm meeting, Lares hiker Mike showed up with his guide Marco(s) and 2 other hikers. Marcos took over our group and told us to be up at 5 am to eat breakfast and then head for bus at 5:20 am for 1st bus (5:30). He would give us a 2 hour tour and then we could do whatever. Luckily, Mike and the 2 young women wanted to do Sun Gate so it was going to be perfect. Victor had told us to meet him and the Inka trailers at 8:30 at the entrance to MP and then we’d have a tour and then free time. In hindsight we would never have made it at 8:30 b/c we didn’t know that there were long lines for the bus. Also, the plan was for everyone to take a bus noonish to meet up in Aguas Calientes for lunch at 1 and then head to train by 2:15. So, it would have been tough trying to squeeze in the Sun Gate.
