At times, you forget that Machu Picchu was not the Inca capital; Cusco was, just from the magnitude of the site. We had our tour of the site at 8 AM. After a while though, I just got so overwhelmed with the incredible masonry techniques in the Imperial Inca Construction that I just started breathing in the site by myself and totally ignored what the guide said. I just prefer to see the ruins and then to think about them. It took me a while to realize the tour had ended for I was always lagging behind. I must have walked another hour or so in the ruins by myself.
