Wow, what a sight. It looks almost too incredible to be real. So proud of him for dominating the Inca Trail!
ReplyDeleteNick has done something that I have wanted to do for the past forty some years when a friend of mine told me all about his experience. I am so glad I got to see and hear about it through Nick's eyes.
ReplyDeleteGreat blog ma, thanks!
ReplyDeleteWOW doesn't do it justice. And that's just for the flower garnish on the food. ;D
ReplyDeleteThere were twelve 30 somethings on our plane from Lima to Cuzco who were doing the four day hike in honor of a guy's 30th birthday. They were from Washington, DC. I took the train, which was beautiful and wonderful by itself. Also hiked an hour up to the Inca Bridge, which was spectacular. Saw 2 college kids from Georgia up there :) I recommend putting Machu Picchu on your bucket list before you're 60 unless you are a triathlete. It was absolutely amazing. We had no clouds in our photos ... an amazing clear day ... perfection!!!
