Wow, beautiful. C'mon now why didn't you bring your Mullen up there and pick a few tunes. It seems like I've played a couple of clubs where the load in was similar to that. Very Happy

The pictures dont even come close to capturing the beauty, and energy of this incredible place. Ive been studying the Inca culture continuosly while here. The altitude gave me problems the first night here in Cusco at about 11,000 ft. One night with an O2 bottle cured that!!..I thought seriously about trying to haul my G2 up here for a promo shot...It would have been VERY difficult to say the least!!!
As for the local music, I havent been out in Cusco at night yet...but I will on Friday after I tour the city. I have dozens of more pics posted on mySpace and Facebook!!>..I really miss my Mullen!>..Cant wait to get home and prepare for the Branson Show, and another great weekend filled with PSG!!>...See you all soon!....Mickey

Yesterday I toured Sacsahuaman (saxywoman)LOL...The fortress above Cusco. Its is unfathomable how the Inca could transport stones weighing up to 130 TONS, from the quarry 25km to the east, over the mountains, and then STACK them as seen in this picture. The first Spainiards to reach this site were astonished at the beauty, and detail in the construction. The Inca would place a stone, and then cover the edges with clay, creating a mold. The mold would be removed and the next stone would be perfectly shaped prior to being inserted into the wall...Sacsahuaman is situated at approximately 12200 ft above SL, 1700 ft above the Sacred City of Cuzco Peru.

Who needs a spaceship when you have a modern South American superhighway system?
It's such a comfort to take the bus, and leave the driving to us.

Hey , there , mickey ; Is that your vehicle hanging over the edge of the one road, with the small bus ahead of it ? If that were me riding on that scenic road ; I know I would have needed a bath about every ten minutes. A pair of britches will only hold a set amount ; you know what I mean.. But you must be happy to be back on firm ground..Right ?Bernie Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!
