Sun-Ae in Machu Picchu
Sun-Ae is now - or was recently - in Machu Picchu, and she sent a couple of photos. Here's the first:
Click on the photo for enlargement - and also with the next image:
Everybody's seen such photos of Machu Picchu before, of course - and probably far more stunning than these two - but photos look different, better somehow, when you know the photographer. Here's what Sun-Ae wrote:
We're just leaving the place with Machu Picchu. Yesterday evening, we arrived here and went to see the mountains today. The weather was great as you can see in the photos. We even went up to Wayna Picchu, about one and a half hours further up hiking. From there we could see the Machu Piccchu. An amazing place, I wish you were here! And the kids, too. We have had a good time so far. The heavens blessed us with great weather every day . . . . Thank you for pushing me to go. This will be the best trip in my life.Undoubtedly, she'll have a lot more to say on her return. Meanwhile, I'm busy editing her translation of a book of short stories, as well as articles by other people for various journals . . .

cph--tremendous! We took the train in there, which runs right along the Urubamba River a lot of the way. We were there in ~ March I believe, and that river was unbelievable. We asked a local if folks ever got out on it and kayaked, etc., and the answer was, no, that would basically be suicidal, year-round...yep. Really glad she's enjoying it at any rate, a stunning place.
Sun-Ae didn't mention transportation, but I expect to hear a lot of stories when she returns.
