Lake Titicaca take 2

Reed boats taking off from the floating islands
After taking a very cheap local bus and then a ridiculously overpriced tourist bus we managed to get directly from Colca Canyon to Puno, on the Peruvian shores of lake Titicaca.






Josh on the lookout



The next morning we headed out to the ultra touristy but still interesting floating Uros islands, a group of 70+ small islands make completely of reeds by the communities that live on them.






The view from Taquille island







The boat then headed onto Taquile Island for great views across lake Titicaca and some community tourism before heading back to Puno.

With time against us we left Puno early next morning for our final stop together, Cusco.
