Pictures of Gringos

PERU | Tuesday, 26 December 2006 | Views [680]

So here we are at Machu Picchu gazing in awe at this amazing place and feel a bit touristy so ask some Peruvian kids to take a photo of us. After they had done the deed and not darted off with the camera (mind you no body would really want our old skool digi), they asked us to return to the favour... except they wanted a photo of them with us gringos! It was mad! We were there for about 10 minutes getting photos taken of us with all these Peruvians.  In the end we had to run off because a bus load of school kids wanted a photo with us... we couldn´t believe it.  I think they like to go home and pretend that we´re their gringo friends. Very weird when there is all this amazing sceanery and beautiful Inca city and they still think that we are worth a photo!
