Machu Picchu was spectacular. Huge granite peaks covered in moss and lichen reach up like fingers around the site. The site itself is nice too, but the location is what makes it so amazing. So why are all the postcards of the ruins?
We are in Cusco now, a nice city that everyone stops at for a day while they wait for their train. We´re staying longer, because strikers at the natural gas company have blocked the highway. Its Peruvian Independence Week, so the country is acting weirder than usual. Apparently there is some kind of feast tonight, though.
