Machu Pichu

19 students and parents ventured out this morning on the hike. It has rained on and off all morning, steep and the stairs are not what we are used to. The construction crew hasn't had time to put in the permanent handrail (Peruvian construction joke from Gary Graff). EVERYONE made it to the top and it was more than advertised. You can wait for the rest of that story from the students when they get home.
We had a tour of the proper Machu Pichu area and everyone has had lunch. This afternoon wil be free time to explore or to go on one of the shorter hikes....ironically the sun came out on our hike to Inkapunta, the Sun Gate.
We will eat supper at 7 back in the town site, explore the Machu Pichu town site, board the train at 9:30 and arrive back in Cuzco by 1:30 am.
