lago titicaca


lake titicaca is lovely. the ride from la paz was cold and a bit stormy past snow capped peaks and and cool lil villages. the town of copacabana was in full party/festival mode. dont fully understand, but supposedly the fiestas were commenmorating the occasion of Chile taking Bolivia's coastline away and leaving the massive nation landlocked. mmm. regardless, the scene was amazing with folks of all ages out all night.. A mix of latin electronica and marching band music rocked the scene of old mamacitas in their ponchos drinking te con te y chicha but lantern light and men getting sloshed.. good times..

We stayed at a super nice "eco lodge" on the banks of the lake and ate the best trucha fish and ceviche multiple times daily. Going out to Isla del Sol by boat was super sweet and only wished we could of camped out there... Many ruins and ceremonial sites and breathtaking views of peaks and bays etc..

We had a ceremony for tiffa in the last orange tinge of sunset. love
