Two weeks from now, we are going to be somewhere above the Atlantic, on a Iberia flight from Madrid to Lima, Peru.

It’s a 20-day vacation we’ve been planning for some time now. Peru is a rather large country, and it’s impossible to see all of it in such a short time, but we hope to visit most of the highlights.

The most illustrious spot to visit in Peru is, of course, the Machu Pichu, “The lost city of the Incas”.

Machu Pichu has recently been elected as one of the new seven wonders of the world, and is considered to be the prime attraction in South America. We’ll reach it by partaking the Inca Trail- a four day trek. 43 kilometers of mountains, Inca ruins and jungle reaching as high as 4,200 meters.

Peru has many other interesting places. We haven’t planned the trip to the last detail yet, and probably won’t do it until we actually reach Peru. Periodical reports will be posted, as always, to the travel log.
