He's living the life.

Those pix are better than most I've seen of that place.

I wonder if they have people who mow those lawns.

To me, Machu Piccu and Stonehenge are greater achievements than landing a man on the moon. Those people started with nothing and achieved the impossible. The moon landing was the culmination of centuries of science.

Since I read it I've always thought I'd love to visit Machu Picchu. Not sure I'll be able to do the climbing & altitude by the time I have the chance.
