Off The Deep End

We took off on a four day and three night adventure to Machu Picchu. We set off from Cusco and drove up to the top of a high mountain pass. From there we spent the whole first day biking down 25 miles of distance and 7,000 feet of elevation. The second day we hiked all day to a hot spring. The third day we climbed around 2,500 feet up to a ridge line for our first glimpse of Mach Picchu before descending to the valley below. That afternoon we finished with a 45 minute train ride to Aguas Caliente at the base of Machu Picchu.

Jammie and I traveled to New York City for my sister's twenty-fifth birthday. We partied hardy in the city that never sleeps.

We have been planing this trip for close to 6 months now. After quitting our jobs at the beginning of July and starting our new lives as bums we began scheming our escape from the good old U.S. of A.
