The prices have increased significantly since my last visit in 2003. We estimate that it will cost close to $250 just to get to Maccu Piccu and back by train not including Hostal. We´re looking into options for hiking in which may be more rewarding. The weather is a complete 180 from Lima also. There was a thick cloud layer over Peru for the entire flight. Maggie is happy for the change after getting a little too much sun in Lima. The trails may be a bit muddy, but we are going to grin and bare it for the next six days (unless we chicken out and don´t). Tonight we were serenaded by a loud group of andean players, singing in spanish, playing las quenas (flutes), panpipes, drums, a mini ukelele and guitar. Looking forward to what we´ll find in the country side.
