View Machu Picchu on your computer

I received a link for a virtual tour of Machu Picchu from a family member.  It looks just like I remember it, even though it was long ago when I went there with my wife.  I sent  the link to Dav Eide for his suggestions and he thought, as I do, that I should share it with the Neighborhood.

Go to this link, and Google Earth will pop up (It takes a while to load the presentation so be patient).  When it finishes loading you can click a red balloon or one of the pictures on the list at the right. It’ll zoom in and you can click to walk around like you are really there. It’ll have little white arrow things once you zoom in (screenshot at bottom)  and you click those arrows and it will walk you that direction, plus you can look up and down just by clicking any area on the screen.  It will take several hours to explore Machu Picchu, but you can go back to it as often as you like.
