    Wqw! It is amazing that you are in Machu Picchu. I have so mauch about the spiritual nature of this place and here you are. WHAT AN EXCITING EXPERIENCE!
    Sounds like you are astill enjoying the travels. Certainly a life time journey that will be remembered for ever.
    I assume that you will probably not be having turkey and cranberries for Thanksgiving dinner but you will be missed. How about some tofurkey? I am sure that we can arrange for it to bve delivered on time.
    Well, my dear, Happy Thanksgiving!
    Love,
    Anne

Bikes are a common form of transport. No caption. School girls holding hands. Perhaps walking to or from the market. Women who work the beach stalls. A woman selling anklets and henna tattoos on the beach. A boy who worked a beach stall. A woman on a village lane. I am amazed at what they carry on their heads. A little girl whose father wanted a photo with James and her. She was tiny and super shy.

The monkey making a successful play for the tourist's hat. Monkey with it's alien looking monkey baby, The laziest monkeys we have EVER seen. More of the temple. The gas station, 1 litre alcohol bottles filled up. These stations are everywhere on the side of the road. The monkey escaping with the hat. Once again trying to negotiate for the release of the hat. Our full serve gas station stop. A vendor bargaining with the monkey to try and get the sandal back. The monkey actually negotiated for better candy than he was originally offered. 3 generations of monkeys.
