Having returned from Bolivia a month ago -- I was thrilled to see your pictures of Lake Titicaca & Tiwanuku -- the same road we drove up to Tiwanuku -- (I had alt. sickness bad!) but oxygen in van... your pics of the ruins up there are beautiful - and I can tell my relatives to look at them because I couldn't get out to get any. Our guide took my husband around & took some - but yours are fantastic! Thank you for your efforts!!
