| Views from bus window as we cruised through the landscape… |
On the road to the world’s largest high altitude lake – Titicaca. We decided to take the 7 hour journey during the day than roughing it at night, had enough nights on buses for now.
Woke up with a vicious zit on my ass. Great, not the ideal thing to have when you’re about to sit for the whole day. I squirmed around in my seat to find a position that wouldn’t send sharp pains through my right butt cheek. Thank god the roads are paved; if we were bumping along dirt routes like those in Central America, my backside would be having a hellova ride!

We took a cheap bus – only S15 per person (US$5) for the 390km voyage – well reflected by the state of its toilet, easily the worst we’ve had so far.

| Rolling mountains ‘neath clear blue skies |
The scenery made up for everything though. Green landscapes and glacier topped mountains rolled pass our windows like a silent motion picture being played to the soundtrack of my iPod. Without knowing it, my mind drifted back to Machu Picchu – mesmerised still by what we saw just a couple days ago…
thanks for sharing… your zit on your ass doesnt make my lunch taste better you know!
