Shall let the pictures do the talking..... TONS of pictures~ & I got to stress this again man, it was so tiring picking out pictures from the 7000++ pictures ok!!! Furthermore the pictures came from 2 separate cameras. So i had to compare and choose the nicer ones out... =.= followed by resizing them, uploading, copying and pasting the code.
ITS.DAMN.TIRING.


Wakey at 4am to catch the train, ZzzZzzZZzz




YES & AGAIN, NEVER EVER LEAVE HOME WITHOUT LONELY PLANET PERU

We finally reached at the bus station to take the bus up to Machu Picchu!

And then...... once again we became stars~





Breakfast!



In the bus, on the way up to Machu Picchu
and................
YEA WE FINALLY REACHED!!!!!!! Whoooo~


















It was so sunny and hot! And i was wearing like 3layers? Totally perspiring like shitz~

LOVE IN MACHU PICCHU







Waynapicchu:

Ready to conquer WaynaPicchu! We were really lucky to be able to experience the climb at Waynapicchu! Only a maximum of 400people are allowed to go/day and we were one of those! :)


Still looking happy and energectic cuz the hike has only just begun.......

Look at these uneven and steep stone steps!



ALL SWEATY AND TIRED~

AND AT LAST........... after the 1hr++ non-stop climb, we reached the peak of Waynapicchu, overlooking the entire of Machu Picchu!
Lovely!

Thats Machu Picchu in the background!

SPOT US JUMPING AT THE EDGE OF THE CLIFF!

CAN U SEE US????











Met a guy from Venezuela! Thats something i liked about travelling - able to meet all kinds of people from all over the globe!

This part was the worst! There were no steps for us to get down. Either u slide your butt down across this uneven big rock and get bruises, or be like us - climbing like a spiderman down! lol~

YES WE CONQUERED WAYNAPICCHU!



Sitting down at the edge of the cliff resting~ The view was simply breathtaking.







I remembered me shouting very loudly HALLELUJAH when i finally reached back at the entrance. The hike was not technically tough, but really physically tiring.

YEA WE DID IT!!


Llama!





We're the stars again.......

After a whole day, we were feeling really tired and thirsty (we exhausted all of our water supply while hiking..) so we went to the cafe outside to have a drink. And i was making loads of noise saying that i wanna get back to the hostel because i was sticky and smelly and dirty all over. In short, i felt really yucky. We were SO CLOSE to going back.
But luckily Erjie mentioned about going in once more to just snap a few more pictures... and goodness, we saw this.......
