My Trip to Peru

Yesterday I went to an a ancient place called Machu Picchu. It was amazing. The colors were so vibrant! For what I was told Machu Picchu was a old town apart of the Incan empire long time ago. If you're thinking about walking the path from Cuzco to Machu Picchu only do it for a day or two because the whole trail takes 7 days total. The trail was really cool looking though. There was a ton of waterfalls, tall trees, and breath taking views!

The day before I went to Machu Picchu I went parasailing over the beach of Costa Verde. I went around noon. If you do go parasailing I would check the forecast for the day because about half way through my flight it started raining cats and dogs. It was still an amazing experience. I would definitely go again.

On my first real day in Peru I went zip lining in the jungle. It was so cool. Such an amazing experience. It was really humid. Next time I go zip lining over the Tahuayo river I am definitely going to leave my jacket in the car. I forgot which company I  went with but there was 12 different lines that we went on. 3 of the 12 lines had ponds and was over the trees.
