After we flew in directly from Arequpia (What a comfort: 35min of flight instead of 11 hours bus drive ... Yes, we are getting old :-) ) we continued our journet first to Ollentaytambo, where we stayed one night, and then yesterday we took the first possible train to "Machu Picchu"! As we were there rather early and spent one night in the village nearby we were able to spend the whole day till sunset within the site of "Machu Picchu". This was especially nice, as we were able to climb the nearby "Wayna Picchu" towering over Machu Picchu, where we had a good view, and most of the tour-groups left at about 3 p.m. to catch the afternoon train back to Cusco, and the site was a little bit more quiet after that and we could watch the sun set over "Machu Picchu" at about 5 pm.
What was nearly more incredible and phantastic than the Inca walls from Machu Picchu, was the HORRENDOUS PRICE we had to pay for this "adventure"! The train fare, the entry and the transportation are incredible and rediculous expensive, as well as food and accomodation nearby. An official ripp-off...quasi ! ;-)
But it was impressive nontheless, and I guess one has to do it when traveling Peru...
You can have the pictures for free now ... isn`t that a service ;-) !?

Ich breche hiermit mit meiner Gewohnheit und verfasse jetzt doch mal nen öffentlichen Kommentar. Diese ganze Story ist unglaublich, abwechslungsreich, wunderschön, aufregend, spannend usw. Ist es am Ende doch gefakt? Seid Ihr vielleicht nur am Gardasee und die Bilder sind alle montiert? Ich glaube, ich werde wahnsinnig, sollte ich Euch je wieder in Echt begegnen. Ich halte Euch sicher für eine Fata Morgana.
Passt gut auf Euch auf, viel Spass bis zum Schluss, auf bald.
Steffi aus Rot
