Hi Everyone!! After Potosi we headed back to La Paz for a day before making our way to Copacabana a small town near Lake Titicaca on the border with Peru. Only there for a short while arrived about lunch time and booked a boat trip to the Isle del Sol for the afternoon. The boat left at around 1.30 and arrived at 3, but to return the same day it left again at 4 so it was a bit of a waste of time, nice views on the boat though. All we did on the island was walk...

This town not only the worlds highest city was also once very very rich on par with New York and Paris (we are talking a long time ago) due to its mining of silver.Nowadays they still mine only a very little bit of silver but mainly zinc.

It is what you would think of as typical South America, , very loud, lots of markets, shoe shine boys, beggers and lots of traditionaly dressed people. Took a bit of a while to get used to but La Paz did grow ...

Hi Everyone! Thanks for all your messages we really enjoy reading them. Had a wicked time doing the 3 day tour around the South West of Bolivia it was amazing. It was just us, an aussie couple and 2 girls from Switzerland in a jeep plus our guide and the best and coolest cook ever. On the first day we went to a massive salt plain, it just looked like snow for miles and miles around. We drove right across the middle of it, which was a bit scary at times when you c...
