Lake Titicaca

Written By: Dad typing from my notes – Oct• 01•11

Today we are in a lake that is the highest lake that you can cross in altitude, the lake Titicaca. We are going to go to the Uros islands. The Uros islands are man-made and they float. It took us 1 hour to get there and the first thing I realised was that there was straw and bamboo as the floor. At first we had a tourist guide and you won´t believe who he was, he was the President! after that we had free time so I was playing really rough games where we fall down like walking up stairs and then jumping of. My record was number eight. That was about the hieght of about 2 metres and a half. After that we had our lunch. I asked for a hotdog and instead of a bun I got a piece of bred with a sausage inside and also crisps insire. Then we went back home in Puno.
