Machu Picchu info needed?

October 27, 2009 - 11:47 am 7 Comments

My boyfriend and I are thinking of doing the Inca Trail… what does it entail (maybe a 2 day one)… where do you trek from and to (Would it be from Cuzco?).

And where do you sleep in Machu Picchu? Would it be camping or would you have to stay in Aguas Calientes? or somewhere else?
Oh and also, who can you book the trek with? I’m in the UK but will be in Chile for a while from the end of this month so I can book it here or in Chile

hi

if you want to do a 2day inca you take the train from Cusco at 630AM
then you et of at mile 84 about 3 hours later.
you will hike for about 6-8 hours and get to MP at 4 or so.
Then you stay overnight in Aguas Calientes.
At 6AM the next the day is when you go to MP..
great time to go.. little tourists.
also.. go up Huayna Picchu when you are there.

we used www.sunriseperu.com for all our treks.

has somebody go to machu pichu in peru ???

I need information about a trip from mexico to peru, I want to go to machu pichu and I understand taht you have to go first to lima, then to cusco and then take a train to aguas calientes and then a bus to machu pichu, someone can explain me

Ok. First of all, check with your travel agent the schedules to fly from Lima to Cuzco. Then, based on that flight, purchase your ticket from Mexico to Lima. Sometimes you might have to wait at the airport for a few hours, but if your flight are too far apart, it is always better to go to a hotel while you stay in Lima. Now, if you plan to stay in Lima for more than a day, definitely go to a hotel as soon as you arrive to Lima. The airlines that fly in Peru are Wayra, Aerocondor and Lan.
Once you get to Cuzco, you will need to figure out if you want to spend more than one day in Macchu Picchu. If you decide to do that, there are hotels up there where you can stay. If you decide to stay only one day in MP, go to your hotel and spend the day there for two reasons: to get used to the altitude, and because it will too late to go to Macchu Picchu because the train leaves early in the morning.
I would definitely recommend taking the train, unless, like other people said, you want to go camping for a few days. Once you finish taking the train, you will take a bus – that will be waiting there – that will take you to MP. The bus won’t take long to take you there.
Nothing big really, when you take in consideration what you are going to be seeing. IT IS WORTH IT!
Good luck!

Why in spanish do they say…?

October 19, 2009 - 11:57 am 14 Comments

"Ahorrita" to mean "later" (literal translation: now)
"Luego Luego" to mean "right now" (literal translation: later later)
"Aguas Aguas" to mean "watch out" (literal translation: waters waters)
It is just a little odd that something can mean the opposite of what it says.
these are phrases that I have heard used in Mexico (Tlaxcala).

well it depends on were you come from. I’m Dominican and ahorita to me means later
luego means later too
its not aguas it agua and it means water to me
tenguidado means watch out not aguas

Can someone translate this for me? spanish to english? it’s quite long…theres also a second part.?

Does anyone have any experience with the Aguas Claras secion of Brasilia? I am moving to the Capital, and am trying to decide which part of the city to by an apartment in.

That would have to be asked on YA Brazil

A standard room or regular bungalow (not Hacienda) in Hotel Aguas Azules (Varadero) for two 19 yo girls in Sep 2009?

If you can afford the bungalow…go for it. You’ll have lots more space.

Has your iTunes on Shuffle ever been strangely serendipitous to your mood?

October 9, 2009 - 12:32 pm 4 Comments

It was so strange, just now, I was in an argument with the old boyfriendio, and I turn on iTunes which I always leave on shuffle, and it starts up with Breaking the Girl – Red Hot Chili Peppers. And I thought: "Hm, well that really fits the mood" and just as things settled down and it was all cool, it played Waters Of March (Aguas De Marco) – Antônio Carlos Jobim…Strange how life works out hm.

Tell me stories kids, I’m curious.

sometimes it’s like that, when it’s tight, it’s tight.
