Yikes, Monday already. Here’s the pause that refreshes, Machu Picchu:

Smonday: That moment on Sunday when you start thinking about Monday. It came to me yesterday about mid day, and thus today I need a Machu Picchu moment: (Ahhh, much better…)

Yet another Monday. While Arizona is sweltering under summer heat, we managed to sneak away for a few days to check up on things in Tarapoto, in the Cloud Forest of Peru. We have an Airbnb there, and it’s always good to keep a watchful eye. We’ve also noticed that we can get work done when we’re there, but the moment we leave, it seems like everyone forgets about us & nothing more happens.  In case you’re curious, here’s a link.

Today is the hard travel day home. We’re now ready for our trip in the fall though. In addition to Machu Picchu and the Sacred Valley, we’re going to spend some time in Tarapoto again as well as explore some famous sites in Lima. It will be the very first time that we’re hosting any acquaintances, so we want everything to be as perfect as we can make it.

Here’s today’s Machu Picchu view… Enjoy!
