On Friday after the rest of the family left, Erica and I hung around Puno until it was time to catch our bus to Copacabana (city right near the border in Bolivia). We crossed the border with no issues at all, it was quite easy! We enjoyed the evening in Copacabana and a beautiful sunset over Lake Titicaca.
On Saturday we took a boat to the Island of the Sun, about two hours away. We started on the north side of the island and hiked about 10km to the south side. It was absolutely stunning. There were Inkan ruins along the way and the views were incredible. (See photo)
On Sunday we caught a 10 am bus to La Paz, the biggest city in Bolivia! We wandered around for a few hours after we arrived and had an early night.
Today we went to the Museum of Contemporary Art, the San Francisco Museum and church, Calle Jaen, a few markets and the Ethnographic and Folklore Museum. A few museums we wanted to see were closed because it's a Monday, so that was a bit disappointing. It as great to wander the streets and do some shopping though. For dinner we went to a delicious Indian restaurant.
Tomorrow we fly to Sucre!
