Bright and early, we wake! Today is day 1 of 2 that we will get to ascend into Machu Piccu. We hastily eat breakfast at the hotel and pack only our backpacks for the two-hour train ride to Aguas Calientes. From there, we are met with another guide who takes our bags to our hotel for us and walks us to the bus that we will take to get into Machu Piccu.
There is something so surreal about seeing this place in person.
We were on a private tour on Circuit 1 of Machu Piccu, which apparently is the best circuit. Tomorrow we had Circuit 2, which our guide said is the second best! So thank you travel agent 😀
It actually got so hot here during the day that I got sunburned.
We then went back into the town of Aguas Calientes or also known as Machu Picchu Pueblo. We found a spot for lunch and Max indulges in his first (of many!) Pisco Sour of the trip.
Next, we had a subpar dinner at our hotel. Lesson learned! The food here is SO good, so skip the hotel.
Super early morning tomorrow, so we turned in to try to get some sleep. Our tickets for Machu Picchu were for 8am, and our guide said to be at the bus station at least 90 minutes early. Night night xx
