After a few minutes of awe and hesitation, the time came to assist Rob down from the winding staircase of stone. Jolts of pain caused him to shiver. I was aware that his physical and emotional equilibriums were deteriorating quickly. His pride and strength were an inspiration and I felt humbled by the depth of the man's courage. |
When we joined the others Rob was still reeling from pain, but I sensed an immense relief merely in the achievement of being there. Rob could start to unwind and begin the recovery process. Salous invited the group to sit down on a grassy mound where he began his introductory talk about Inca life at Machu Picchu - a fascinating subject, but I was too shattered to absorb its complexities.
