January 27th- Puno, Peru to La Paz, Bolivia

Well, I made it through the border check pretty smoothly.

We rolled into Copacabana, Bolivia (not to be confused with Brazil) and stopped for lunch on the beach. 17 restaurants on the beach. All serve one dish. Trucha. Which is Bolivian Trout. You can get it prepared 5 different ways, but it´s the same fish.

Then we headed toward La Paz, the Bolivian capital, around 1pm.

We stopped again at 2. To pay a toll i thought. But then we were asked to show our passports and shuttled onto a dock.

So everyone was wondering why they were loading us on a boat and what would happen to our possessions which were still on the bus.

Turns out. the bus was ferried across the lake to meet us on the other side.

So about dinner time we descended down into the valley toward La Paz and checked into our hostel.

I hit my room and found my 4 roomates all napping. 2 Aussies. A brit. And a German.

So we hit the town together for a memorable first night.
