Photo of the Week

Sunday October 5, 2008
Machu Picchu This view of the Lost City of Machu Picchu, seen from Huayna Picchu, presents a different perspective on the terraces, scope and intricacy of the ruins. Note: Machu Picchu means Old Mountain in the local dialect and Huayna Picchu is Young Peak.

Probably one of the highlights of my extensive travels around the world.
I spent 4 days on the Camino del Inca getting to Machu Picchu.
The temples in Cusco where equally as immpressive!
