Tragedy at Aguas Calientes

The last stop in our 2007 World Tour was Aguas Calientes and Machu Pichu Peru (see first Sept blog). It was a very memorable place, even though it rained quite heavily.

However, the rain was nothing compared to what has happened there over the past few days. These Vancouver Sun photos portray a very different place than what we saw. What a tragedy.



Although our first impressions were not that positive, we eventually found it to be a charming, interesting village with very lovely people. Let's hope the place can be rebuilt.

Amazing blog! Do you have any tips and hints for aspiring writers?
I'm planning to start my own blog soon but I'm a little lost on everything.
Would you suggest starting with a free platform like Wordpress or go for a paid
option? There are so many options out there that I'm totally confused .. Any recommendations? Many thanks!

I'm impressed, I must say. Seldom do I encounter a blog that's
both equally educative and amusing, and without a doubt, you have hit the nail on the head.
The problem is something not enough men and women are speaking intelligently about.
I am very happy I came across this during my search for something relating to this.
