Machu Picchu

The reason for coming all the way here to Peru. Machu Picchu, finally after 4 days of gruesome hiking. We caught the bus going to the ancient site. Ramiro walked us around giving us a lot of information on what we were seeing but to be honest, I was too distracted by everything else and I couldn't remember much. It was awesome either way! The morning was very foggy, but they added so much ambiance as we went uphill. There were llamas all around and I was able to take amazing photos and the mist helped so much and creating a dramatic and mysterious mood. While Ramiro was explaining the history of the place, the fog started to clear out and finally Machu Picchu was revealed in the most amazing fashion. It felt so surreal. We took a lot of photos and went to the center of the ancient civilization. We went around and looked at all the interesting spots and soon parted ways with Ramiro and were left on our own to get back to Cusco. I spent some time doing some meditation and yoga, absorbing the energy of such a powerful and spiritual place, surrounded by mountains, above the clouds. I soon said good bye to Trish and Penelope, telling them that I'll meet them back at the train.Meer informatie
