Paula and her snow-capped Pumaclove Mountains
IMGP6727
This picture was taken at 9:30AM - the moon was beautifully visible over the Pumaclove Mountains.
IMGP6731
This is a view of Huayna Picchu looking through the main gate of Machu Picchu
IMGP6741
This is the top of the actual mountain called "Macchu Picchu" (translates to "Old Mountain")
IMGP6742
This is a bridge that the Incas built to allow escape from Machu Picchu. The Incas would leave the city of Machu Picchu and remove the logs on this bridge so that enemies couldn't follow.
IMGP6743
This gives a little sense of the steep cliff that the bridge is built on. The trail we took is closed from the point we took this picture, because it's too dangerous (at least one tourist died trying to cross the bridge).
IMGP6746
The kids named this dog "Machu" and he followed us all the way along this trail.
