Where are we now?

After starting stage 2 in Cuzco we're now in La Paz, Bolivia.

10 days (I think) of cycling and a few more days than we should have had relaxing by Titicaca and exploring the islands.

The distance from Cuzco to La Paz according to our bikes is 710.76km of mostly Altiplano, but beautiful all the same and flat which is always good.

Highlights of the stage were cycling along the shore of Titicaca, arriving in Copacabana and one of the best things I´ve ever seen the City of La Paz all squashed into the bottom of the canyon, surrounded by the snow covered peaks and Illimani towering above everything.
