For all those that are wondering Mark´s thyroid saga continues. We had a travel day from Machu Picchu to lake titicaca what was supposed to take 10 hours ( train and bus). We payed a little extra to be on a more reliable bus. Money not well spent the bus broke down anyways. Bus drivers in South America drive nuts by the way.
To pass the 3 hours that we were stranded in the middle of knowwhere we played a little disk. The locals on the bus started demanding that they get their money back and there a was a near riot.
We hopped the border to the Bolivian town of Copacabana located on lake Titicaca. Bolivia has a bit of a bum wrap but the people are really nice and things have been great so far. We spent a night on an island located on the lake called isla del sol. It was and awesome place.
This little girl was selling straw Lama dolls randomly on this path and we felt that we should buy one. I gave her an extra Canadian flag that i had. We later realised that her parents were hiding behind the bushes feeding her sales pitch lines. Great pic
We have decided the straw lama will be our mascotte for the trip. We named it Cloudia after the little girl.
