The next morning we woke up around 7am with the sun. Our family brought us some bread and an egg sandwich for breakfast. By 8am we were back on the boat and headed towards another nearby island, Taquile. The trip from the port to the plaza made for another 45-minute hike up a rocky path, but also afforded some spectacular views. Once in the plaza, more colorful celebration awaited us, as the locals put on a dance show for the tourists and in honor of their own country as well. I talked a little bit more with the Chilean girls, discussing Saved By The Bell and Beverly Hills 90210, and then ate lunch with Adam and Katie. From there, we walked down the 500 steps that led to the port on the opposite side of the island and boated back another three hours to the mainland. I read a few more stories and took a number of bored, beautiful pictures along the way. After a quick pizza dinner, Adam and I got on the 5.30 Power Bus back to Cuzco. It was another long ride, to be sure, but at least this time we got to watch a movie: RAMBO.
