I love this guys. We had a great time at the end of the 3rd day. We had proper place to camp, good food, beer, A house and poker. Craig´s poker, but poker. Craig was from birmingham (if I am not mistaken) and really cool guy. Michael was from New Orleans... which at that time was flooded. He was spending some time out, to refresh a bit.. We had serious conversation... brazilians, a british and an north american...

No mortar used, just perfectly shaped blocks.

Melothria scabra [ inca mouse melon ] mini one inch mini cucumbers which have a delicious refreshing taste and which can be eaten raw or sliced in salads.

The town of Ollantaytambo was built by the Incas, many of the original streets and buildings are still in use.

El Camino Inca tiene en total 45 kilometros, logra combinar la belleza del paisaje de montañas, frondosos bosques y la selva subtropical. Por supuesto, una impresionante mezcla de construcciones en piedra, centros arqueológicos, ruinas y túneles incas.

El destino final del Camino Inca es Machu Picchu, la misteriosa "Ciudad Perdida de los Incas".

Inca Stern. [Englisch] The Inca Tern, Larosterna inca, is a seabird in the family Sternidae. It is the only member of the genus Larosterna.

 

This uniquely-plumaged bird breeds on the coasts of Peru and Chile, and is restricted to the Humboldt current. It can be identified by its dark grey body, white moustache on the both sides of its head, and red-orange beak and feet.

 

The Inca Tern breeds on rocky cliffs. It nests in a hollow or burrow or sometimes the old nest of a Humboldt Penguin, and lays one or two eggs. The eggs are incubated for about 4 weeks, and the chicks leave the nest after 7 weeks.

 

This is a large tern, 41cm long. Sexes are similar; the adult is mostly slate-grey with white restricted to the facial plumes and the trailing edges of the wings. The large bill and legs are dark red. Immature birds are purple-brown, and gradually develop the facial plumes.

 

The Inca Tern feeds by plunge diving for fish like a Sterna tern. Its call is a cat-like mew.

One of the most colourful, vibrant and exciting markets in the world, this is Majorca's largest market.
