A face full of wonder and hope in the Quenchan town of Umasbamba, where electricity, running and indoor stoves did not exist.
Working in the poorest community of all of Cusco, these precious faces always brought sunlight to each day!

Thousands gather at Sacsayhuamán to welcome the Inti Raymi procession and watch the Inkan ceremony.
At Sacsayhuamán, HUGE crowds await the arrival of the Inti Raymi procession, my group of friends and I included. The most amazing and craziest part of the day was watching the procession arrive to the top of the hills of Sacsayhuamán on the cloudy day. The clouds actually PARTED as they arrived and sunlight lit their path down to the alter where the sun continued to shine down on just the alter and no where else! This was truly the "Festival of the Sun".
