Trip To Peru!!! Andie C.

I just got back from Peru and i had so much fun and learned a bunch of cool stuff. On my trip i went to see Machu Picchu. I learned that Machu Picchu is Inca runes. Machu Picchu is located in Cuzco and their is a trail leading to Machu Picchu and is one of Peru's most popular sites to see .Machu Picchu was discovered by an american historian Hiram Bingham in 1911. lots of burial sites have been found along with skeletal remains .Machu Picchu is divided into two large sectors one is the agricultural which contains the terraces and the other part is the urban which is used for administrative and religious activities.It was really cool to see and i took tons of pictures.



Machu Picchu

while is was there I heard about a festival they were going to celebrate soon. it was called Inti Raymi. This festival is also know as the festival of the sun and is held on June 24. it was too bad I had to leave before the festival was going to be celebrated but it sounded like a lot of fun. I also heard that there are many street dances and parades that go on whish sounded so much fun to watch.




The last thing I did was go rafting it was AWESOME!!! I went with some of my friends and we all loved it. A couple of my friends hadn't done river rafting before but the loved it. it's a lot of hard work but really fun. It's also great exercise. We all had gotten wet by the time we were done but it was worth it!After the river rafting was done we were all quite hungry so we got something to eat. it was sooooo yummy.

well to pretty much sum it up Peru is the place to go if your looking for a fun filled trip.
