Foot bridge from the end-of-the-line PeruRail train station to the town of Aguas Calientes, a tourist mecca with the distinction of being the closest habitable place to Machu Picchu. This is exactly the kind of place I try to avoid at all costs. So believe me when I say staying here is worth it, in order to wake up in the middle of the night and get to the sanctuary by dawn.
I will finish that travelogue. I will. I will. I will!

We loved the moment the sun rose and the clouds lifted at the Sun Gate…especially after a 4 day hike and getting up at 3:30 am for breakfast in hopes of being first there to pick our perch.

What a stunning photo. The textures of the water, rocks and the foliage on the hills in the background really frame the bridge.
