| Atop Isla Del Sol with our tour guide Eddy (left) |
This weekend the LPF team took a break from coaching, teaching and training and spent the weekend on Isla Del Sol (Island of the Sun), an island in Lake Titicaca. Lake Titicaca sits on the border of Bolivia and Peru, is the largest lake in South America, and at 12,500 feet is the highest commercially navigable lake in the world (the altitude training never stops!).

| The hike up to the hostal |
After an early start Saturday morning, we ate fresh trout in Copacabana on the lake shore before taking a rather slow boat ride over to the island. Our hostel sat near the top of the island, which meant a long hike up a flight of pre-Inca stairs - the hike was meant to take 45 minutes but unsurprisingly the Student Coaches saw it as a challenge and flew up in half the time.

The weekend was spent enjoying the clean air, amazing scenery, hiking, and exploring the Inca ruins on the island where Inca legend says the sun was born. We arrived back late Sunday night ready for week 2 of our program in El Alto.
