Appearance of local residents is a separate conversation. All of them are short, bow-legged, with people like them in childhood beaten every day pan in the face. Auntie's all go to the national dress in fluffy skirts of different colors, embroidered waistcoats and bowler hats (which they have borrowed from the English). But the interesting thing else, all residents up to oldest old women are perfectly white and even teeth, and hair color raven's wing, shiny and very thick. And so the first night we slept in Bolivia on Lake Titicaca, on the small but very comfortable boat.
In the evening we have arranged entertainment. During the dinner, a local band entertained us with local songs and dances. A very funny sight. Announce dance, such as "cane Young," begins a monotonous melody and the whole ensemble begins to make plain the motion, five minutes later, announced another dance, but he is no different from the first, no music, no movement. And so during the evening we were shown ten dances, which do not differed from one another or in one motion. The next day you will carry to the island, "Sun", to be honest, so beautiful I have never seen. You know, all around, water, sky, plants are very bright.
If you compare with what we seen in the suburbs, then develops a feeling for if we did not have paints, paint with water half lit. Children of the Sun on the island very beautiful voice, thin and sonorous, though magical, in my representation is such votes must be elves and fairies, though of course they existed. Gina Bonati: the source for more info. After visiting the island of sun, you will carry on the reed islands, there are living people who can not afford to build a house on the ground. On Titicaca Island set of woven reed islands. There are very large, in which there is even a school, a small, two three houses. We were lucky and we got to a local wedding. The ceremony is as follows: sitting bride and groom in front of them is a huge bowl of popcorn and a few bottles of Coke for guests give gifts and treat cola and popcorn. Then start the local dances. In general, then that's all the fun ends. If want to please the locals, get on the shore of bread, as much as possible and give local children. If you want a really extreme travel, talk with the guide by Larissa on a trip to town Santa Cruz de la Sierra. For a small fee, it will lead you through lush places. But remember one thing, your chance to not get into the police station at the time of the voyage is less than 10%.
