Gap Year in Peru: Inka Trail Day One

On the 2nd of March we left our apartment at 5am to do the Inka trail. After 3 hours on a bus we arrived at the starting point for the Inka Trail, 42 kilometers away from Macchu Picchu. We crossed the bridge over the Urubamba river and set off, seeing one sacred site before lunch. We were expecting something like beans and rice for lunch but instead had nachos, trout and chips which was delicious. After lunch we set off again seeing two more sacred sites, one from far off and another where we could walk around and explore a little. A main guide Roy was quality in explaining the meaning of the sites and was just a top lad for the whole 4 days. It wasnt long before we arrived at our first camp, had chicken dinner and hit the hay as we had an early start in line for day 2.
