Cocacabana & Isle del Sol, Bolivia

Our first stop in Bolivia was on Isla del Sol (Sun Island) the largest island on Lake Titicaca.

After a very slow, windy, and bumpy boat ride from Copacabana to Isla del Sol there was a slow climb up a lot of steps to get to the accommodation area.
There was other traffic we needed to give way to on the way up.

We stayed on the south end of the island and I had a very scenic two hour walk to the north end.


There were some traffic hold ups along the way...

but the scenery was fantastic.


















The north end of the island where I had lunch.


The walk home was an unexpected three and a half hours over the top of the island.




First stop, the labyrinth, Inca ruins full of passageways.






This lady was my sugar fix hero. She had her little shop just before all of the hills.

The view from the sugar fix shop. Great marketing plan.
