You will be picked up from your hotel at 6:40 a.m., after a 2 hour
motorboat ride, you will arrive at the Uros island. Fishermen and
hunters inhabit the floating islands of the Uros. The residents of the
Uros use the cattail, a type of rush, which grows in the lake, to create
the conditions that ensure the islands stay afloat. The dense roots that
the plants develop support the island. The roofs are waterproof and the
houses are extremely humid because of the surrounding water. At present,
they speak Quechua and Aymara. Then we will visit the Taquile island,
where we will have lunch in the cooperative restaurant. There is also a
cooperative shop on the plaza that sells exceptional wool goods which
are of very fine quality and somewhat expensive. Taquile Island is
famous for its craft production, particularly for its beautiful
textiles. The island is narrow at about 1 Km. wide and 6 to 7 Km. long.
The visit could be exhausting because of the 533 steps on the stone
stairway to climb to get to the village and because of the altitude
(13,000 ft above sea level). On Taquile there are numerous pre-Inca and
Inca ruins as well as Inca terracing. We will return in Puno in the
afternoon, overnight. (B,L)
