Bolivia to Peru - PC

After La Paz, we spent a couple of days in Copacabana which was on the shore of Lake Titicaca which is supposed to be the highest navigable lake in the world

We did a day tour over to Isla del Sol (Island of the Sun). We hiked for 3 hours to go from the northern end to the southern end. This island apparently was the birth place of the Incas. We did see many ruins from Incan and pre-Incan days. It was a very beautiful trek with sapphire coloured waters all around. As most of the way was nearly 4,000m, we were very, very puffed pretty much the whole way. Angus was suffering from the altitude and the sun when we got back.

We are on our way to Cusco now. Home of the Incan empire.
