The floating islands



After that we headed to Puno which is on the Peruvian side of the lake and from there we took a tour of the floating islands which were suppppper cool! They are man-made islands made out of the roots of reeds with reeds piled on top- crazy! The island we went to had about 50 people living there 7 or 8 families. We are pretty sure building a Kappa island for retirement purposes is a must!! We also got to take a ride on one of their boats that kind of looks like it was built by the Vikings because they have dragon heads on one side- so funny!
