Ronald and I had breakfast in a place in the centre with the locals. We had a purple drink made of maze called Api, it is similar to sweet cereal but in a liquid form and bunuelo fried sweet dough, like a sweet pastry. We walked around town, visited the shield of Copacabana -each part of it representing geographical feature. We chased a bull as you do, climbed a big hill to find the Ahorca del Inca which consists of 3 rocks which the Incas put together to hang criminals from. On the way we up we passed the Observatorio Astronomico where the Incas would observe the universe from and finally after a very steep climb we found the Ahorca de Inca and from there we had an excellent view of Lake Titicaca and the Isla de Sol which was located in the middle of the lake.
