Machu Picchu

Machu Picchu is tremendously remote and we found it really difficult to get there! Over a high mountain pass by bus, snaking our way up and over the Andes and then down into tropical rainforest followed by a very long walk!

Today's walk up the vertical slope to the ruin was amazing! Hummingbirds and orchids and over 1000 steps! Ethan and Joseph ran down it in record speed.

Sophie spotted a baby llama, the llamas keep all the lawns very neat!

The city itself was amazing! The stones were carved so beautifully, some of the boulders were huge, how they moved and shaped them we don't know!
