La Isla Del Sol

We got an 8.30am ferry to Isla del Sol, ditched the tour and got a one way ticket. We walked to the Inca ruins in the south of the island and then got trout for lunch in the town close by and filled up our water from the Inca fountain. We did a 3 hour trek to the north of the island, the views of lake Titicaca were gorgeous. The village were we stayed Challapampa, was so cute, donkeys and pigs wandered around the beach and lamas roamed in the hills above. We went for a wander before dinner and watched the locals playing a volleyball match by the beach. Dinner was in a really sweet restaurant on the beach where we had red wine, soup and trout- yum!!

Me and Leggra went to see 'El Templo del Sol' the next day and the sacred rock- there were loads of little passages and tunnels to explore. when we reaturned, we chilled on the beach where a little girl was hassling me for sweets. I gave her a sweet and then we made sand statues together and buried eachothers feet, such a sweetie.

By then it was time to hop on the boat back to Copacabana, stopping at the floating islands. We cooked dinner in the hostel and then headed down to a bar.
