our tour guide, whose name was something that sounds like, but probably is not, Ruben, made two emphatic points as he began our tour:
1) the "Incas" are misnamed. "Inca" was the word that the people who ruled this region used to describe the man who ruled over them all, their king. Ruben said the actual *people* were the Quechua (pronounced "KAY-choo-ah"), and that the empire they created should rightfully be called Quechuan. the teeny amount of Web-based research I did after getting home doesn't exactly bear this out -- it seems more like Quechua was one of the *languages* spoken here, but that we don't actually know what name the people used to call themselves (as a whole).
2) Hiram Bingham did not discover Machu Picchu in 1911. an 11-year-old boy did. the expedition Bingham undertook to find the remains of lost Incan cities led him to this mountain, which at the time was completely overgrown with vegetation. at one point, he came across a family, and while staying with them asked if they knew of any ruins nearby. the kid said something to the effect of, "yeah, i was playing baseball over there last week," and led him to Machu Picchu. Bingham was not actually looking *for* Machu Picchu, but rather a place known as Vilcabamba, which was believed to be the last refuge of the Incas in their war against the Spanish.
many of the artifacts uncovered during those initial excavations of Machu Picchu still reside in the United States. apparently, Bingham brought them back with him promising U.S. researchers would study them and then return them. but the U.S. hasn't quite gotten around to the "returning" part, apparently claiming that Peru has not proven that it has the ability to properly care for them. (our guide said a new museum was being set up that should hopefully pave the way for their return; for now, the artifacts remain at Yale University.)

Same kind of layering, limited palette of Albrecht Durer pencils, and papers in the Lesson_1_a.
Fun!
First version of the lessons learned slide - instructor thought maybe the reference was a little bit of a stretch so we went with godzilla trying to destroy japan for the Nth time instead.
These are my assignments for # Lesson 1. Trying for the good line In ink is very challenging for me. And I had a 5 year old grandchild in my lap while drawing his water bottle. But it was fun to try.
I am glad I made a grid of my watercolor pencils. I've been meaning to do that since I got the two months ago.

Summer means swim lessons.
Z loves being in the water and is super excited to go to California to visit Grammy and Grandpa and swim as much as we let him.
