Easy Trekking at about 15,000 feet


This morning we took a two hour bus ride through the Antiplano en route to Tuni Condorini, an impressive 18,700 ft mountain situated in the Bolivian Andes.  After an excellent and thorough introduction to La Paz and Bolivian culture in general by our tour guide Carlos, we arrived at the trailhead.  Throughout the day we 'swam' in a glacial lake, practiced our newfound talent of belly dancing and had an enjoyable lunch at the base of Tuni Condorini, complete with a song and dance from Carlos.  Upon returning from a long day of trekking almost everyone enjoyed a much deserved nap.
