Lake Titicaca: Copacabana y Isla del Sol

The CFHI group went to Lake Titicaca this weekend.  We went to Copacabana and stayed overnight at Isla del Sol.  The pictures do not do the views justice, but it's all I have to show.  Enjoy!

Trucha (trout) in Copacabana.  Here, the trout is pink!  So yummy!

Lukas (mama bear) and I at the top of the boat that took us from Copacabana to Isla del Sol.  Had to get the Bolivian flag in the picture of course!
Lukas, Sarah, Me, and Spencer.   It was worth being cold on top of the boat for 1.5 hours to boat over to Isla del Sol because the views were breathtaking!
