Another fun day in Puno

We had no agenda at all today.  We went down later for breakfast and then headed for the Plaza to find why we were hearing band music.  Well, there was a parade of all the Kinders and teachers marching past an Army band across from the church.  Army officers were observing from the church steps.  There must be lots of schools in Puno because this parade went on for hours.



After we watched for 1 1/2 hous we walked the 20 blocks or so to the waterfront, wandering through the market places, and just enjoying the sights and sounds.  We followed the walkway around the bay to see if we could get to the ship Yavari that was brought to the lake in 1862. On our way.....

This we took for Lindsey


Linda, what are these?




Three or more miles later....



Walking home we came upon a public primary school.


We caught a ride to the market for tangerines and bananas and then walked the rest of the way home, stopping for empanadas and ice cream on the way.
