So, Isla del Sol...you´d have to be pretty stupid to forget suncream on the "Island of the Sun". But I did. I got so sunburned on my neck and left arm that breathing hurt. It was worth it though. The Island was beautiful and the trek was good fun although the locals tried to tax us just for using the trail. As we had no money we caught the boat back to Copacabana and found a room for the night for $2. The boat was fun because they pile about 100 people on a boat fit for about 20, the sun was going down over the lake as we returned which was nice. At Puno bus terminal I saw the porters loading bags of chickens onto buses. Its the funniest thing ive ever seen, the bags were trying to run away. We are in Cusco now after an 8 hour journey on a local bus, the bus was called "power". It must have been an ironic name as it broke down at least twice. The "Sacred Valley" looked a lot more sacred from our crap bus but it was probably the most stunning scenery ive seen so far. Hoping to bungee tomorrow, 30 quid is worth it right?
