Swimming in the Worlds Highest Lake

No rest for the wicked, after my mountain climbing effort it was off to Lake Titicaca, the Worlds highest navigatable lake and onto Isla de Sol the birth place of the Incas.
Randomly ran into Sammy and Emily in Copacabana which was great with the exception that Sammy needed to pay for our Inca trail in the following day and desperately needed any money he could get his hands on. So my emergency USD were handed over only for me to realise I had $8.60 ASD to survive the next 24 hours!!! Time for another one of those amazing travellers generosity stories. Met Marly and Bernard on the boat across to Isla de Sol and the night that followed was truely one of the best and most random of my travels. Reminded me of Bamboo Island in Thailand - ended up seven people, all strangers, all from different countries sitting around a camp fire drinking good beer and questionable wine listening to good music and having a brilliant night. Guys thanks for the drinks thanks for the good times. I hope the memory of me stripping off for a crazy midnight swim in the freezing waters of Lake Titicaca in someway repaid the generosity you provided. Eitherway I doubt you will forget the "Crazy Aussie Guy" who had that freezing dip, or the strange colour of blue I went afterwards...
