Introducing… the Bolivian Bullfighters

 

Our team has chosen the name of the Bolivian Bullfighters, and although the gentle baby milk cow who inspired the name didn’t seem impressed by us, we are now the proud Bullfighters.

Today we enjoyed an after breakfast hike to a viewpoint above Copacabana, a boat ride to the Sun Island, and a very picturesque hike on an ancient trail that follows the crest of the island and offers panoramic views of the lake and the Andes. Hiking around Lake Titicaca on a sunny day is a spectacular experience!

Tomorrow we transition to the mountains and will continue to send you updates via sat phone audio recordings.

Buenas noches!
