Aguas Calientes<\/h3>\n

Train ride in the morning departing from Poroy station which was about 20 – 30 minutes away. We had a driver set up by Ricardo (our guide)\u00a0pick us up from our hotel. It wasn’t bad at all, just had to make sure we left early enough to get our train in Poroy. PeruRail runs the trains and we took their cheapest train “The Expedition” which was nice and was very comfortable. It was definitely nicer than some of the trains I’ve been on. We got complimentary drinks and a snack for our three hour ride to Aguas Calientes. Adventure continues.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner seqspeed=”150″ font_color=”#ffffff”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image source=”external_link” alignment=”center” external_style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”custom_link” css_animation=”left-to-right” custom_src=”https:\/\/farm2.staticflickr.com\/1613\/25923673370_1bc486ba5a_c.jpg” caption=”Breakfast Coffee\/Tea Time” link=”https:\/\/farm2.staticflickr.com\/1613\/25923673370_dd75d53426_h.jpg” el_class=”prettyPhoto”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image source=”external_link” alignment=”center” external_style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”custom_link” css_animation=”bottom-to-top” custom_src=”https:\/\/farm2.staticflickr.com\/1631\/25593871433_a1d7c6d8ef_c.jpg” caption=”Poroy Station” link=”https:\/\/farm2.staticflickr.com\/1631\/25593871433_32f00c4dbd_h.jpg” el_class=”prettyPhoto”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image source=”external_link” alignment=”center” external_style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”custom_link” css_animation=”right-to-left” custom_src=”https:\/\/farm2.staticflickr.com\/1638\/25591784774_eeb247f324_c.jpg” caption=”Poroy Station” link=”https:\/\/farm2.staticflickr.com\/1638\/25591784774_a611691d01_h.jpg” el_class=”prettyPhoto”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_single_image source=”external_link” alignment=”center” external_style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”link_image” css_animation=”top-to-bottom” custom_src=”https:\/\/farm2.staticflickr.com\/1492\/26196537075_f54e157f5a_h.jpg”][vc_single_image source=”external_link” alignment=”center” external_style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”link_image” css_animation=”top-to-bottom” custom_src=”https:\/\/farm2.staticflickr.com\/1643\/25595930663_4528d20544_h.jpg”][vc_row_inner seqspeed=”150″ font_color=”#ffffff”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image source=”external_link” alignment=”center” external_style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”custom_link” css_animation=”left-to-right” custom_src=”https:\/\/farm2.staticflickr.com\/1474\/25593871213_3b5cb7f6dd_c.jpg” link=”https:\/\/farm2.staticflickr.com\/1474\/25593871213_a5da6ab4b2_h.jpg” el_class=”prettyPhoto”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image source=”external_link” alignment=”center” external_style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”custom_link” css_animation=”top-to-bottom” custom_src=”https:\/\/farm2.staticflickr.com\/1606\/26104081022_81d1bd554a_c.jpg” link=”https:\/\/farm2.staticflickr.com\/1606\/26104081022_f7d74851f0_h.jpg” el_class=”prettyPhoto”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image source=”external_link” alignment=”right” external_style=”vc_box_rounded” onclick=”custom_link” css_animation=”right-to-left” custom_src=”https:\/\/farm2.staticflickr.com\/1697\/25593870943_836fe61482_c.jpg” link=”https:\/\/farm2.staticflickr.com\/1697\/25593870943_0f784fce3a_h.jpg”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text css_animation=”top-to-bottom”]<\/p>\n

Machu Picchu<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Around 4:30am we headed out of our hotel and headed to the bus stop\u00a0which was about a\u00a0\u00a05 – 7 \u00a0minute walk towards the main intersection of\u00a0town. We weren’t the only ones already up. A\u00a0long line had already formed. It wasn’t too long before the line moved and people were getting on huge tour buses to go up the steep winding \u00a0hill up to the base of Machu Picchu. It was still dark and the clouds\/fog were gently hugging the peaks. It was awesome.<\/p>\n

We met another guide and started our tour. He would only be with us for the first part of it where we walk around Machu Picchu the city. We were on our own for the second half of climbing Huayna Picchu\/Wayna Picchu the mountain peak (8920 ft above sea level).<\/p>\n

Seeing Machu Picchu and the mountains surrounding it was breathtaking. It was magnificent and unbelievable to see. The fact that the Incan people built this so high up was also mind blowing to imagine.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_single_image source=”external_link” alignment=”center”

Huayna Picchu \/ Wayna Picchu<\/h3>\n

Climbing up Huayna Picchu was a difficult task for me. Every few steps up the mountain, I had to stop to catch my breath. I wasn’t use to it and the high altitude didn’t help either. We met a friendly traveler, \u00caadoin,\u00a0from Ireland and she accompanied\u00a0us along the trek. Once we got up there, it was a sight to behold. The lush green mountain top with clouds rolling in and out. We sat down by a ledge and hung our feet down to\u00a0relax and view Machu Picchu below just like the ancestral Incans. What a sight.<\/p>\n

Also amazing up top were a few temples built this high up. I couldn’t imagine lugging heavy stones up steep steps that seem to go on for miles. The climb was worth every breath and I’m glad we did it.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner seqspeed=”150″][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″ position=”top”][vc_single_image

The Descent Down<\/h3>\n

It was definitely easier then going up. It was still an awesome view along the way. We met climbers going up and stopping. We \u00a0encouraged a few who seemed discourage that there was more and still were not at the top. We also joked to some who were really close to the top that only about “an hour’s more climb before the top” and they gave us the “Geeze, really?” look. But we smiled and said “no, they were close”. The relief on their face was priceless.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner seqspeed=”150″][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″ position=”top”][vc_single_image

Thank You Aguas Calientes\/Machu Picchu<\/h3>\n

Before boarding the bus to go back to Aguas Calientes, we got our passports stamped that we were there at Machu Picchu. We had about an hour and half to kill before getting the train back to Poroy. So we decided to walk around the streets of Aguas Calientes. We decided to get a massage and we headed to about two places before realizing they couldn’t do three of us at the same time. When we reached the third place on one of the main streets, we were taken to the side back door which actually connected to the restaurant next to it. So we got a massage in the back of a restaurant, a little odd but we took it since they could take the three of us. We got our massage although we cut it short by about 15 minutes before running back to our hotel to get our luggage. I’m sure the massage therapists were a little confused since we didn’t speak the language and they barely understood our English. It’s not like we didn’t pay, like a dine and dash. We had to catch our train. Definitely a story worth telling. We boarded our train back to Poroy with a lively group of singing non-speaking vacationers. It was evening and dark out when we arrived at Poroy. We shortly waited for our cab and then headed back to Cusco.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_separator color=”custom” border_width=”3″ accent_color=”#dd3333″][vc_separator color=”custom” border_width=”3″ accent_color=”#dd3333″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
