Peru: Days 3 & 4 in Aguas Calientes & Machu Picchu

While I know you haven't been frantically reloading this blog looking for the next set of Peru photos, I must apologize nonetheless for their nonappearance. Now, shall we?


Some notes:
  1. Hiking up 2,000 feet of vertigo-inducing switchbacks when you're out of shape and 10,000 feet higher than sea level is not a good idea, per se, but does yield some damn fine views.
  2. That dog is amazing.
  3. I know, I'm a freak for Photoshopping my face out.
  4. We spent 11 hours at Machu Picchu, followed by 12 hours of sleep. Seriously.
