This from Woodstock:

"the story into puno will have to wait until tomorrow. i rode into bolivia today, surrendering $135 for my 5 year visa. i started to have bike trouble on the drive in last night, do not remember if i told you or not--but made it to copacabana this afternoon, riding with xxxxx and xxxx from california on their klr. i started working on the bike this afternoon, but it got dark and cold fast and i was very hungry so we went to eat and i let it sleep for the night. i will work on it tomorrow, possible head out to an island in lake titicaca--can you believe that i am sleeping on the shore of lake titicaca? wild, then onto la paz. hopefully i can solve the bike issue tomorrow, if not, there is a good shop in la paz which is just a few hours away and hopefully they can help there. that is all i have got at the moment."

Meanwhile, we're leaning into the solstice, light until 1o pm and starting again at 4:30 am, muggy heat and humidity and blooming flowers...he really is a long way from home.
