Peru

Well, this past weekend I went to Machu Picchu. Here's how the trip went...

Went "de boleto" (which means that I stayed up drinking all night and went to the airport at 4 in the morning smelling like a distillery) to Cusco, which was a good time. Slept on the airplane and slept when I got there, so overall I would call it a success.

The first day in Cusco was allowed for acclimating ourselves to the altitude, which didn't give me too much trouble.

The second day we all hopped on a bus and went around the sacred valley and saw a bunch of old Incan buildings. Interesting.

The third day I woke up with several others at the asscrack of dawn (330) to climb up Machu Picchu so that we would be the first people in line to go up the big mountain in the background of all the famous pictures. It gives a completely different view of the site. We clambered up the side of the mountain that is Machu Picchu first, and then we climbed up the larger mountain at about 8. It was hot and worth the hassle.

Took a bunch of pictures with other people's cameras because mine decided to die. Lovely.

Here's the pictures of the trip that I got from other people. Enjoy.

¿Cómo me vas a decir eso, y espera que no vaya a pasar nada? Entonces, ¿Qué hago?
