Periodismo en Línea points us to a two day old video by NicoRios, a Chilean tourist stranded in Aguas Calientes. In the video he shows how they wait for the helicopters to arrive and explains how they were running out of food and stores have drastically increased prices for food and water. Today the Chilean Government sent a presidential plane to pick up 70 Chilean tourists who were already in Cusco.
