Copacabana Santa Rosa Festival

When we left La Paz to ride to Lake Titikaka we had absolutely no idea that we would end up in the middle of the Santa Rosa Festival held in Copacabana on the lake shores!

The pictures tell the story of one of the biggest parties I have ever been to. If you think you  have seen fireworks before, think again. The party went on for three days, the pictures are day one. How anyone managed more than one day is a miracle.

I will let the pictures do the talking!





These costumes weigh about 35 to 50 kg!
