BUSES
Somehow refreshed we wander through the countryside of Isle De Sol on Lake Titicaca. Not going to say much about the bus trip from Uyuni to Lake Titicaca except it was long, rough,in parts treacherous and all one could see for the first 6 hrs was the vastness of the desert under the stars and moon. Yep it was a total of 14 hours of unadulterated hell.
Isle De Sol was the birthplace of the Incas, plenty of monster trout from the highest lake in the world, great accommodation with a 360 degree view of the lake, comfort, home cooking, great walks, terraced fields, gum trees and bowler hats. A perfect spot for R&R.
After 3 days we were ready to head into Peru. Ah but not before another bus tale with a new dimension. After changing buses on the border we (with a bribe of $20 extra US dollars) found oursevles on a first class bus with the added luxury - there was no stench from the toilet - worth the $20.
So, now in Peru.
