The main street in Copacabana, Bolivia. This is where you get a boat to Isla del Sol (Island of the Sun).

This is a lady carrying the famous water reeds found in Lago Titicaca. The entire island is made out of these reeds. There are several of these man-made islands. The Uros Floating Islands have been inhabited since their construction centuries ago by Uros Indians who were retreating from more powerful neighbors like the Incas.

This was our ´local bus´ on board an unstable old wooden barge while crossing a short passage of water on Lake Titicaca on route to La Paz in Bolvia. We feared we would never see our bags again which were perched precariously on top wrapped in the blue tarp but they had obviously done it 100´s of times before because everything went ok.
