Pictures From One of the New 7 Wonders of the World

[Iberia A340-600]

As some of you know I am currently down here in Cusco, Peru and have been since June 19th and will be heading back for New York on the 28th which is in 11 days. I'm currently down here because my mother who is a professor at Vassar College was assigned to direct their new Spanish summer immersion program hosted in Cusco, last year it was in Oaxaca, Mexico. Finally this past weekend we had the chance to visit Machu Picchu although it was the worst weekend for me since I have been sick since last Tuesday and found yesterday I have been diagnosed with Typhoid Fever which is apparently rather common here in Peru. Needless to say I was in a lot of pain over the weekend.

Hope you enjoy the pictures, the weather didn't cooperate very well.

Great shots Gordon!

Hope you're feeling better.

[stuart schechter]

I only see the word image. Maybe Photobucket did delete them.

[Iberia A340-600]

Pictures have been re-uploaded after an email mix up with Bill.

Bill, if you wouldn't mind editing or deleting your post that'd be great.

Nice shots, Gordon! Since I expect that I will never get to that part of the world, I'm glad you posted them. It sure looks like some gorgeous scenery. And I hope you are feeling better. Maybe we should start calling you "Typhoid Mary" :D

But what's this crap about "New Wonders of the World"? It's just like when they said Pluto wasn't a planet anymore, and all the stuff I learned back in Catholic school went out the window :roll:

[nwafan20]

Nice pics Gordo, glad you got them up and found your memory card :D

I love that llama (that is a llama right?)

Hope you feel better!

[AirtrafficController]

Nice shots Gordon. Was the air a bit thin that it made it hard to breath? Also was it easy to get up there?

[hiss srq]

Phil the yellow animal is Gordon when he got Typhoid Fever! LOL jk
