Inka Trail, Day 4: MACHU PICCHU

Arg!!  The weather on the entire Inka Trail was *perfect*…. until the very last day. 

We awoke at 4am to make our way to the Sun Gate, *the* place to see the sunrise….  We really booked it and we were the third & forth people there.  And by there… I mean a big wall of white fog.  :)

The “vista” above Machu Picchu wasn’t that much better.  Our guides kept saying that it would clear… and then around 8:30am, it finally did….

 

the llamas, also upset by the fog….
 

Look!  That's where Machu Picchu is supposed to be! 

yep, that’s machu picchu.  not exactly how i envisioned it….

 

but then it started to clear! !

 

and clear even further!!
