Copacabana, Bolivia (2)

One day we made a nice boat trip to the Isla del sol (Island of the sun). It had rained the two days before, but we were luckily blessed with sunshine on the day of our trip.




On the island we had a little picnic. These two girls came along and after having a little chat in our perfect Spanish, we traded cookies with them. It seems they were happy with the trade they did.

Copacabana, Bolivia (1)

On our way from La Paz to Copacabana. Of course the bus also needed a little ferry.


We managed to see a ceremony outside of the Basilica. The cars were decorated with flowers; beer and champagne was poured to prevent the cars from accidents.



La Paz, Bolivia

Welcome to La Paz. We are still over more than 3500 meter above sea level. This town has so many steps and steep streets that we are breathing heavily after each meter walked. In the background you can see the Huayna Potosi mountain, which is 6088 meter high.


You can buy Lama fetus in many sizes on the street. They are especially for people opening a new shop or business. They are supposed to bury the fetus under the doorstep and the new business will be succesful.


The main plaza of La Paz.


They have actually been here before Oliver...
