Machu Picchu

After 4 days of hiking I didn´t want to move. But walking all that way to miss the purpose of the trip would not be smart. Woke up at 4:00am to start walking up, up and up to Machu Picchu. It was about 1 hour 20 minutes of stairs. My calves were the size of tree trunks.

Machu Picchu - what an experience! Pictures don´t do it justice. And there is a reason why it was named one of the Wonders of the World.

I´ll let the pictures speak for themself.
