We took the train from Cusco to the town of Machu Picchu and then the bus up a steep mountain road to the entrance of Machu Picchu. since we are staying at the Sanctuary Lodge, which is right next to the entrance, we did not go into the citadel. And instead enjoyed the grounds and gardens of the Lodge. had a lovely lunch and later an equally lovely d dinner. Tomorrow Machu Picchu at sunrise.

I envy your ability to adjust so well to 8,000 ft. elevation! It takes me 2-3 days to feel OK in Denver at 5,300 ft. Machu Picchu at sunrise, what a view that must entail.
