Hey Guys,
Back again, some photos for you to enjoy. We appologise for the lack names of the ruins, our memories are not the best.We hope you enjoy them. Before we get to the photos, we thought we would let you know that we visited the middle of the earth today, littereally. We went to the equator (what we thought was the equator at first) which was pretty cool. After that we went to a museum and found out that they were sitting on the real equator. It took the Military to correct the miscalulation of the french using GPS. They got it wrong by 200 metres. At the museum they showed us proof. We got to see water run out of a drain clockwise, counter clockwise and straight out with no swirl. It was really cool. We also scored ourselves certificates for being able to balance an egg on a nail head, apparently gravity was on our side being a little weaker there. We also weighed about a kilo less as well (thats what I call an easy diet). Anyway, on that will do, now on with the show.
What are you looking at?
Glen near the start of the trail, the sacred valley in the background.
Robyn in front of the first ruins we encountered on the trail.
Random trail shot… The weather closing in.
One of the more impressive ruins.
Glen taking a well deserved rest.
Our first look of Machu Pichu at 6 in the morning. Waynu Pichu is the mountain in the background.
The view from the top of Waynu Pichu. We were told it was a 2 hour return trip, we did it 45 minutes.
The money shot.
Robs.
The Inca trail leading to Machu Pichu.
Our wrong turn ended up here. Was actually worth it as we saw the trail in its original overgrown state as well as this unique view.
The damn landslide that prevented us from completing the whole trail. We would have walked over it if they had of allowed us :) You can see the Sun Gate off to the left.
A taste of Cusco, Plaza de Armas. (The rest were left in the hotel, sorry…)
