We were lucky! Without knowing, we booked a lovely bus ride from Arequipa to the provincial hub Puno on Lake Titicaca. The route passed through the Parque Nacional Otishi, where we reached the Altiplano and an altitude of 4444m! We saw Alpacas, Lamas, Deer, Sheep and even Flamingos!

For our arrival in Puno it seems like the locals threw a great welcome party for us!

Just kidding! Puno and the whole Titicaca region is famous for its folklore fiestas.

Next morning we caught a bus at 7am and on the way to the bus station we walked through the local food market, quite impressive!
