I am going to keep it short today, suffering a bit from the altitude… I flew from Lima To Juliaca today on my way to Puno and Lake Titicaca. I was picked up at the airport by my guide, Sue, and we immediately began touring. We first stopped at a village that was having a celebration of the founding of the market. The ladies were all dressed up in their traditional costumes… Our highlight for the day was visiting the Sillustani archaeological complex. In Sillustani, a peninsula of the Umayo Lagoon, we visited one the world's largest necropolis, in which stood over 90 chullpas, giant and primitive stone mausoleums of over 30 feet high, designed with a top wider than the base. It was an amazing place. Of course I got lots of photos along the way… Hopefully tomorrow I will feel better and will post a blog….
