The discovery of Machu Picchu, the local Peruvians already knew it was there by the way, occurred July 24, 1911. The comparison of how it looked like then compared to what it looks like today is striking!

SGT (Join to see) A friend was on a South American cruise. Having elected to take a "tour" to Machu Picchu, Becky was chargrined when the tour operators informed everyone that the 'road' to the ship had been washed out by torrential rains. Tourists carry credit cards and little cash, the tour soon became disastrous, after a difficult night, Becky was thrilled when a helicopter suddenly became available. FOR A PRICE!

Very impressive place and great story. Never have been there but know several people who have. Their stories are fantastic. Bucket list item for me.
