Day 4
Lansing, Hauptstadt von Michigan
August 31, 2023 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C
In Lansing, der Hauptstadt von Michigan, schauen wir uns das Michigan State Capitol an. Es ist ein historisches Nationaldenkmal und State Capitol mit gewaltigem gusseisernem Kuppeldach.
Das ganze Regierungsviertel kam uns wie ausgestorben vor. Man hätte mit einem Maschinengewehr herumschießen können und hätte niemanden getroffen.Read more

Spartan Stadium
August 31, 2023 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C
Wenn wir schon einmal in Lansing sind, wollen wir auch das Spartan Stadium sehen, wo das College Team von Michigan spielt. Eine freundliche Mitarbeiterin, deren Mutter in Ulm lebt, öffnete uns die Türen. Dieses Stadion faßt deutlich mehr Zuschauer als das Stadion von Bayern München. Hier spielen aber keine Profis, sondern nur Studenten. Und es ist bei jedem Spiel ausverkauft. Morgen Abend ist das Eröffnungsspiel für die neue Saison. Wir wären gerne dabei gewesen. 🥴Read more

Day 30
Detroit-Stockbridge
June 1, 2023 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 27 °C
8:30 Uhr waren es schon 20 Grad und es sollten über 30 werden. Die Strecke aus Deroit war überraschend gut gewählt von meiner Navigation-App Komoot. Es waren meist ruhige Straßen und ich bin schnell vorangekommen. Manche Straßenzüge waren vielleicht nicht ganz so schick, aber das ist in Detroit halt so.
Zum Mittag wollte ich eigentlich einen ruhigen schattigen Platz zum sitzen. Alles zusammen gab es aber nicht. Also habe ich mir an der Tanke zwei Pepsi (ist dann billiger) gekauft und mich auf den zumindest schattigen Bordstein gesetzt und meine Nudel verdrückt. Zum Glück waren die relativ kalt.
Dann an Hamburg vorbeigefahren und ein Foto von der Entstehungsgeschichte gemacht.
Nach weiteren 40km bestem Radweg bin ich bei Kateri und ihrem Mann angekommen. Sie fahren kein Rad haben aber ein großes Grundstück und gerne Menschen hier. Es gab schon lecker Abendessen und ich darf im Garten zelten.Read more

The Cusco 5 and Mike and the Lares hikers (about 7 in total) took an early bus to MP. We did see Victor; Simon and Ben chose to go with them. Mike had brought his walking sticks but only elderly and incapacitated were allowed to use them. So when he went to check his sticks, I told him I’d be happy to be elderly for him. He was kind enough to let me use one for MP and the Sun Gate. When you enter the park, everyone must walk up and then back down to the actual ruins.

We had lunch at restaurant Hot Springs 2 (Ollanta has hot springs about ½ block from our hotel) and went back to Ollanta to catch a bus to Cusco. The Inka trail hikers spent a lot of time figuring out how little oxygen they got when they were hiking: their highest point was Dead Woman’s Pass at 13,824 feet. I thought we were all going to get together for farewell dinner but people dispersed to their rooms. Some eventually met up in the lobby and both Katie and Heather invited me out for drinks after they dropped off laundry. Cindy and I had a room with a view on the top floor but her niece and grandniece had a triple so she left all her stuff in our room but slept with the others. The room they gave us was just a double bed and I was on my way down to complain when Cindy gave me the update on her sleeping arrangements.

Day 7 - Part 5 Sun Gate

It started to drizzle just a bit going down and I slipped (but did not fall) a few times on the rocks. I took 45 minutes to get down and the others hurried ahead so they could do the Inca Bridge (thought by some to be a secret back entrance to Machu Picchu: Trek up to the bridge that's cleaving to a 579m (1,900 ft) cliff, and soak in amazing views of cloud forest along the way.) . Wish I had felt like it; it was only a 15 minute hike. I headed back to the bus to Aguas Calientes to meet up with the rest of the group and take a train back to Cusco.

After our nice tour of MP, Mike, about 4 other Lares hikers, and myself went to Sun Gate (about 1000’ higher). The Sun Gate is dedicated to Inti, the sun god. It was supposedly an hour to 1.5 hrs up. I made it in 40 minutes from the first sign post. Of course, I was at the back of our group and huffed and puffed the whole way. Thankfully, I had the walking stick and thankfully, Mike had the other as he tweaked his knee going up. There were not many on the path. When we got to top and enjoyed it for about 15-20 minutes, there was only a total of about 12 people, including us. It was clear and somewhat sunny up top.

Hiram Bingham with the help of locals uncovered MP in the early 1900’s. With the help of National Geographic, they took years to uncover. MP is a 15th century citadel believed to have been built as an estate for Inca emperor, Pachachuti. It was inhabited by 500 royal families (or people). The Temple of 3 Windows represent 3 parts of the world: underground, heaven, and present time (i.e., past, present, future). They also represent the rise of the sun, very important to Incas. The Temple of the Sun is the round structure seen in my pictures. The Inti Watana stone (seen in my pictures) is believed to have been designed as an astronomical clock or calendar. It’s 4 corners point directly N – S – E – W. It points directly at the sun during the winter solstice. The Incas were very much oriented towards the heavens and the stars.

Day 7 Aguas Calientes/Cusco (Tu, May 23)
Machu Picchu – 7972’ and Sun Gate – 8924’ (almost 1000’ higher) Cusco 11,152’
Rise and shine – the best time to see the Lost City of the Incas is in the early morning light. I gained local insight into the Inti Mach’ay cave, Inti Watana, the Temple of the Sun, the Temple of the Water, the Temple of the Condor, and the Room of the Three Windows. [This 15th-century site, now both a UNESCO World Heritage site and voted one of the new Seven Wonders of the World (in a worldwide Internet poll).]

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.
