Inca Pilgrimage - Part III (Peru)
Hi friends and relatives,
Susie and I are now enjoying the country of Peru. There is much to say about this totally different South American country, but for now I will let the pictures do the talking.
I finally was able to find a good computer to upload pictures onto my web site. So I hope you enjoy our Inca Pilgrimage -- so far. Many more miles to go, and places to see. As one writer said: "The traveler sees what he sees, the tourist sees what he has come to see."
The link to the pictures is at:
Inca Pilgrimage

Enjoy, and hope to hear from all of you (when you can).
