Juli
Relatively flat ride. Some along Lake Titicaca and rest farm areas further inland.
Puno was warmer than previous nights but still waited until an hour after sunrise to get on the road. First picked my way through town including past this church.
Off to the left was some shallow parts of Lake Titicaca.
Not quite sure why these flanked the road.
Closer view.
They make these little triangular haystacks here.
This woman had her hands full keeping several different types of livestock on tethers.
One of the little towns I passed through. Just as in Colorado, many of the towns here have their elevation on welcome signs. 3820m is 12,530ft or close to elevation of the lake.
A section of fairly wide open road. I am not sure how green it gets here, but it is now winter and a drier time of year.
These houses seem to be coordinated. Not sure if they are normal living spaces or only occasionally.
I found the tilt in the sedementary rocks interesting. Not sure on the geology here.
Some mountains visible on other side of the lake in Bolivia.
Made my way past this entrance sign in Juli and found a hotel off the main square.
There were marchers in the square. From their banners, it looks education related.
