Viewing Post for: Inca Trail II 2013
Date: August 2, Friday
Location: Augas Caleinte and MACH PICCHU
Tears. Best way to describe today. Good tears. Tears at the sudden expansive view of Machu Picchu when we went through the sun gate. Relief of having accomplished this trek. Sadness at seeing our new amigos go, some called them our protectors. Tears of being humbled by the mountains and the smiling service of our staff of local Quechua men. Tears at our sunrise offering to the world healing thoughts for our friend Lisa who could not join us as the sun hit the 20,500 foot Salkantay. Lighting of the world stripping the layers to the precious parts of our hearts as many of us thought of loved ones not with us in body. Good tears. Lagrimas. Awe.
