Lake Titicaca - Puno

Our last stop in Peru is Puno which leads onto the very large Lake Titicaca. This is the highest navigable lake in the world. It was huge. We visited three different cultural groups in a meter of two days.

The first were the people that live on floating islands made of reeds. The make their own islands and raise families on them. If you don't like your new ours you simple pull up your an hours and float to a new area. 

The scone was a home stay with a family. We had a great time with our mamas and our families. We played volleyball mainly with the women of the village dressed in their full local clothing. We were served a traditional meal and had to do work with the family. Dianne and I had to help turn over a new field to plant potatoes.
Our last stop was Taquile island which is known as the men's knitting island. All the men on the island knit very intricate hats , scarves, clothing which they give as gifts to family on special occasions.
In Puno we also had a delicious meal with a dancing group to mark the end of our time in Peru. Off to Bolivia.
