The Lost City

The crew is showing some serious emotions.  Not only because we are leaving, but also because they are witness to the spreading of their legacy to others. As I watch my shipmates walk out of Machu Picchu, some laughing, some crying, some stone-faced, I know they are sensing the 2,000 Checian’s who once lived here. They are in touch with Peru. They feel its history. And maybe, just maybe, this lost, forgotten City was not lost at all. Maybe we just never opened our eyes to it.
