TRAVELLING across the border from Peru into Bolivia, the bus crossed the arid hills along the rough road until drawing to a stop at the narrowest part of Lake Titicaca.

A deep channel crosses between two low mountain ranges. The only way across the channel is by boat, so we left the bus, took a launch across the cold lake whilst the bus was transported on a barge.

Once across the other side we continued our journey across the arid mountains towards La Paz.
