We descended into the valley from Cusco on asphalt roads,
then took dirt roads to villages as high as 13,000 feet above sea
level. Sometimes we had to wait for sheep to edge to the side of
the road. The villagers gave us festive dress and involved us in
common activities including digging potatoes the old-fashioned
way, gathering flowers to make a dye to dye T-shirts they gave us,
husking corn and shelling beans that were part of our lunch, and
dancing to music played by local musicians.
MACHU PICCHU
Our last stop was Machu Picchu. Breathtaking and almost
unbelievable, it is a "must visit" location if one ever gets the
chance to visit Peru.
There's nothing like spending the day in a 500-year-old
abandoned city to help put things in perspective. After all, what
could be better than experiencing the trip of a lifetime? How
about experiencing two trips of a lifetime? I hope you can join
Fred Smith and me as we embark on a trip to Ireland and Scotland
this summer from June 27 to July 8. For more information, feel
free to contact me at dmcmoran@wsu.edu.
The team from Washington State
topped off its trip with a visit to the
famous and breathtaking Machu Picchu.
