Was chatting to a French lad on the boat - he was on a day trip all the way from La Paz cos his buddy crashed on the Death Road 3 days previously and broke his elbow. Nasty - yer man had to have an operation and was still in hospital! They went with a cheap crowd for their bikes - i felt vindicated I'd spent the money on extra safety!

When we got to the island, I paid to go on a guided tour which was a desperate rip off but still enjoyable! The locals have the ripping off the tourists act down to a fine art.
Aaaaawww! Isn´t she cute? She demanded payment for this photo with her pet sheep. I ran away quickly in case she beat me up |
Walked up to the hotel I was staying in, took forever with altitude but the view was off the scale. From my room I could see the sun setting over the Andes. Walked out to the balcony and watched it with sound Aussie/Yank couple.

Then went for dinner with 3 English I met on the boat. Mighty craic, they were all hilarious in fairness to him. Yer man was only over for 10 days visiting his girlfriend - the 2 girls were around for about 5 months. Dinner was fine, lots and lots and lots of wine!
