Uros and Taquile Island-Worst case TouriTour

Next Tour in Puno, to be honest, rather deceiving, Touritrap.
On a long and pretty cold boattrip we visited first
the floating Islands: Uros. According to our guide, all that
native people want, is to get out of there. Way too much humidity.
They suffer of rheumatism and don't get old.
So tourism shall get them out of there!


He's the boss of this island and demonstrates how the
islands are built. And when some neighbours don't get along
anymore, they just cut one part of the Island off,
hasta la vista baby!


OOPS, where's the fireextinguisher?


Propina! Caramelos! Tienes plata Gringo?


Backyard memories!


All kind of Arts and Crafts: main source of income!
Works pretty good! People on our tour didn't seem
to be familiar with other markets in the region... ;)










Then we went on a very slow boattrip to the next Island!




From there we went back on our boat and visited TaquileIsland.
I don't have any pictures of that place, but the meal was great!
To see what it's like, see the 'Isla del Sol-post'
