Reed Islands, Peru (27/3/2007)


We took another coach to Peru, and had some interesting incidents at the border with our friends’ visas. After holding the coach up for about an hour we set off and arrived in Peru. The part we visited, Puno, looked pretty similar to Bolivia, they had a different mode of transportation though. These taxi bikes were everywhere and were good fun, a cheap and easy way of getting around.












We went to visit the ‘Reed Islands’ of Lake Titicaca which were amazing. Everything was made of reeds, including the actual floor that we were walking on. People still live there, but now mainly for tourism. It is listed in the ‘things to see before you die’ book, and was definitely worth seeing.
