International Border Dispute

Fun fact: Thanks to some silly embargo dating from the Bush administration, Bolivia now charges Americans $135 to visit their country. Fun fact #2: That´s not written in the Lonely Planet. So here´s how you do it if you´re ever in the neighborhood. First, you argue with the border guard...

Border Crossing

It´s time to leave Puno, and Peru. We hop on a bus to Copacabana, just on the other side of the Peru-Bolivia border. Once we get there we learn there is a change in policy to Americans entering Bolivia. The border guards politely ask for a $135 visa application fee and I politely decline....

Her name was Lola ... She was a Showgirl

Thats right, were in a place called Copacabana, and Andy cant get the song out of his head! This end of the lake is very different from Puno. Weve gone from industrial fast paced Puno (kind of like Newcastle) to laid back and beautiful Copacabana which is more like Byron Bay - after only a 2...
