16/11/09 - Andes Again

Today was another long bus journey through the Andes. The only difference here is that approaching Lake Titicaca the mountain chain splits into two and goes off down both sides of it.

Puno is a nice city and the hotel is probably the nicest we've stayed at so far. I'm sharing a room with Luke at the moment and it turns out that he is (or at least was) a gamer like me so we had plenty to talk about.

On an unrelated note while on the internet I realized that my net book is now operating above the recommended altitude. It had never occurred to me to check but most hard disks are only checked up to 3000m and we're considerably above that here.

In the evening I had a meal with the new guys and they all seem pleasant enough.
