Copacabana and Isla del Sol

---

From La Paz, Paul and I went to Copacabana for a night to visit Isla del Sol. We walked the whole island in a day; it was beautiful... full of Inca ruins and surrounded in waters of every shade of blue.

Sacred Rock
The ¨Sacred Rock¨ sits in the backyard of a woman´s house. Her gardens were beautiful, overlooking Lake Titicaca.

Bien Contenta!
I just like how big my smile is in this one... describes the day!

El Lago
Paul and I decided to get artsy... found a cool color setting on my camera...

Paul, Lake Titicaca and I :)

Storybook
Everywhere you look in Peru and Bolivia, the majority of women are dressed in traditional wear. An ankle-length skirt, about 5 shawls, top hat with two braids hanging down to their waist, and a bag strapped to their back that is holding a baby or anything that they can sell.

Inca Ruins
Visiting ruins on the north side of the island.

Cambio de Dinero!!
Well, they say that you are only going to pay for the tour... then you get to the island and about every 10 steps you have to pay 10 more bolivianos to continue on the trail (which you have to do in order to get back to your boat!). Paul and I were totally out of money, and the bank was closed (actually it´s only open for about 3 hours each day!!). Finally, we found chilean pesos on us and traded them for pesos bolivianos with this chilean guy we met on the trail.

Boat Ride
Boat ride back to Copacabana, (again playing with the color application on my camera!).

The Island
Part of the island look green and lush like this, and the other side reminded me of a walk through southern california, full of eucalyptus and way more dry.

Me quemó!
hay sol por isla del sol...
