Our trip to Ollantaytambo

Here are a few pictures of our train ride from Machu Picchu to Ollantaytambo. At the train station, we saw the cutest little girl, someone of my travel mates gave her a little stuffed animal. She was both thrilled and confused.

 

 

The train left on time and we saw some beautiful views. The plan was to see ruins in another town.

 

 

Below is a picture of the ruins we saw. The ruins had both Pre-Inca and Inca style architecture. The Pre-Inca style is not as smooth. The stones seem to be smaller and the Inca style is much smoother. The incas put a lot of effort into the buildings that were either religious or for nobility.

I'm at breakfast now. It was delicious. We had eggs, fried cauliflower, fruit, and coffee. Oh, and there is a wonderful bread all over Peru. I'll take a picture and show it to you.

Are all of you getting ready for your vacation. Please check the blog even when you are home! I'll be sad if there are no comments!

Until next time.....

  1. The pictures of the ruins were incredible! Ms. Deacon is very jealous and hopes to visit Peru herself one day.

    Are you having a good time on your trip so far? We hope so. Did you like the fried cauliflower?

    See you soon!
