Lake Titicaca

I've fallen behind a little bit, it was bound to happen. We went to Lake Titicaca last week, the day after doing The World's Most Dangerous Road. The two activities couldn't really have been much different, the former being dangerous and heart pounding while the latter was about as slow paced as you can get. While it was scenic and relaxing and for sure a great place to go, I can't say this entry will be long or mindblowing by any means. Anyway, we took a 4 hour bus from La Paz to Copacabana which is on the Bolivian side of the lake (Puno being the Peruvian side), managing not to get stuck in any rivers this time. The boat ride from Copacabna to Isla del Sol, the main island in the middle of the lake and supposed birthplace of the Incas, takes about 2 and a half hours. My guess it would be just slightly longer if you were to swim, judging by the boats leisurely pace. We hiked from the North end of the Island to the South which took about 5 hours and caught the boat back to Copacabana. The next day we headed back to La Paz. Ok, this is the last time I get to do this. "Titicaca"... hahahaa.
