Copacabana, Lake Titicaca 14 - 16 Nov 2008

We were delayed for a day in Puno by yet another transport strike - but at least they sorted it out quickly so only held up by one day. Set off at 07h30 for the 3.5 hour trip to Copacabana on the Bolivian side of the lake. Its a very pleasant trip, with lovely views of the lake for much of the time. At the border you get off the bus, pass through the Peru passport control, then have a 300 metre walk, then go through Bolivia immigration and then hop back on the bus. Breaks the journey! Copacab...

Civil War and the World Cup

Where do I begin? Iīll have to warn you, this entry will be a long one, so you might want to get a cup of tea.... So we leave La Paz on a bus to Copacabana which is on Lake Titicaca (translated into Rabbit Puma in the local language because of the way it looks on a map, Giusi: yes and this is the Inca name since they could see the lake from above thanks to the magic mushrooms!). To our surprise, James and Aaron, our American travel buddies were also on the bus. I guess they couldnīt stay away...

The Blackpool of Bolivia and Beyond

Well hello, Its been a touch week of travelling for us both this last week.... After the rest and relaxation at Arthys Hostel in La Paz (which has to rate as one of our top 5 hostels so far - pictures when we get to a computer with a USB plug) we were really sad to leave La Paz - a city that literally takes your breath away. But onwards and upwards, to Copacabana and Lake Titicaca (the secnery enroute is breath-taking), where we arrived to Easter celebrations galore and pouring rain - it wasn...

Straight to the big Lake!

The bus from Uyuni pulled into La Paz at about 7am. We were still in two minds whether to attempt to get to Lake Titicaca. We wanted to but didnīt fancy one big long journey to Santiago for our flight to NZ. Going to the lake meant going immediatly and separating from our new friends from the previous few days. I think our first impression of La Paz probably spurred us on. Tranquilty and an awesome lake seemed more appealing than bustle, smog, and markets. We were on a bus west to the lake by...

The weekend and Carl Orko Dinosaur Footprints

Had a really lovely weekend! Friday was a day off from Britana due the Fiesta and it being the kids day where they all perform. Had a nice chilled day (chased a mosi around my bedroom the night before) starting with a long lie, and then relazing up at the Mirador in the sun. At night met Iseline as it was her last night in town and had dinner at a lovely French place! The next morning I had breakfast with Iseline, then met my good friend Sybille (who I studies Spanish with in Quito) and her b...

Sucre, Bolivia sandramcnicol
Ahhhh....hows the serenity!

The overnight trip to Sucre was like any other for me on a Bolivian bus...cold (note to self: need new socks as these fighting a losing battle with time), sleepless and with a dubbed Van Damme movie to keep to keep the masses entertained, co-starring Dennis Rodman. Indeed it was a Double-Team. And behind me on the trip sat Mandy and Sarah from the UK, Mandy having had someone walk onto the bus and swipe her bag above as she sat talking below in her seat to Sarah. Not having met yet I had no i...

Bilbo does the ferry (again)

... of 50!

We stopped further up the road when we reached quite a big junction where there were also a couple of banks, hoping to replenish the cash and then get some directions. We soon realised the banks had no ATMs, and being Sunday were closed so our second issue would not be solved here. However, just as we were deliberating who to ask for directions, the Belgian guy came up the road and pulled over. He told us the way to get to Oruro without going through ...

Back In Copacabana, we got sucked into a nice restaurant by Mr Charlied to the eyeballs and was treated to a fine plate of trout with a bout of Andean Panpipe mayhem to accompany. After a slog of the Old Grandad Rum back in the Hotel we settled into a haze of swirling sun and crazy Andean music filled dreams..

... north of the island and declined a guide... we met an oz and some english girls so just wandered about with them... bought the museum ticket for 10b, not the most exciting museum... we then walked to the top of the hill, We decided to walk across the island and meet the boat at 3.30 instead of getting the boat to the south... they said itīd be about 3 hours... I had forgotten at this point that we were at 3800m at lake level, and the island ...
