Raymer arrived at 8:50 and we walked over to the Sun Temple
Sun corner, where on summer solstice, light illuminates the interior of the whole temple
The secret to no mortar
chink and polish
how the huge blocks were moved
Overlooking their draiange system
Good morning Cusco!We were picked up outside the temple and taken to Saqsahuaman, pronounced locally as Sexy Woman.
From the air, this looks like the head of a puma with the teeth the zigzag exterior.
Who moved these monsters?
Hard to capture the concept of the teeth except from an airplane
Feeling rather small today
Next ruin was called, the tunnels in the rocks
The puma again
Next, high in the mountains to the natural baths for the royalty, Tamnomachay
That is meters folks!! so chewing on cocoa leaves again today
These two streams, two different temperatures come from unknown sources
And the last stop of the day....Pukapukara, the lookout for all the trails from all the different directions.
Raymer made me do it!
One can see far and wide
