The town of Aguas Calientes doesn’t have much to offer, just tourist restaurants, drink specials and hostels. We fortunately found a hotel with a great little private kitchen and enjoyed some of the best food that we have eaten this entire year. We were the only ones eating and had a great conversation with the Peruvian chef. We went to bed early in order to make the 5:30 bus and be the first to arrive to Machu Picchu in the morning. When we arrived the sun had barely risen and the area was covered with fog. We were in a nearly empty Machu Picchu and were fortunate to have the site almost completely to ourselves. Our first view of the layout through the mystical fog brought gasps of amazement. Here are some images from the early morning.
