Bolivia 2003: By bus from Quito, Ecuador to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
...........................................................

Our lunch stop on Day 1 was on Fisherman's Island -- Isla de Pescadores. Here there are thousands of cactuses, some of them 30 feet high, and a stranded colony of vizcachas, long-tailed rodents related to the chinchilla. Sue took a walk around the island while our cook prepared lunch -- noodle salad and onion and tomato sandwiches -- yum!
