Sorry for the delay of posting the pics.

Machupicchu was simply stunning. There are no words to discribe how amazing the view was and the ruins were unbelievable. We got an early start that morning and woke up at 4:45 am to catch the first bus up to Machupicchu. We wanted to hike to Waynapicchu and becasue they only allow 400 people to hike up to the peak we had to be first in line to get a number. They only allow 200 people up at 7am and then another 200 up at 11am. So we got our number and started the accent up to Waynapicchu. It was definately not an easy hike up. It was a steady incline upward and because of the high altitude, we were very short of breath. When we finally got to the peak, the view was undiscribable. It was once in a lifetime view and worth the early morning rise and difficult hike up. We waited until the clouds diminished and anthony got some spectacular pictures of the view. The pictures i posted from my camera definately don't do the view justice. Anthony said he will post some of his later.
