July 2011 is going to be amazing for two reasons. First of all, the month will have five full (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) weekends. This only happens once every 823 years. Secondly, one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, and one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been to, will be celebrating its 100-year re-discovery anniversary.

That’s right; it’s been 100 years since Machu Picchu was discovered by Hiram Bingham on July 24th, 1911. An entire century has passed since Machu Picchu was transformed from a Mayan secret into one of the most visited places on Earth.
