Lake Titicaca

Did a 10 hour bus trip today, from Cusco to Puno, a city on the side of Lake Titicaca, 11,000 ft., going over a 14,222 ft pass.  We saw big herds of alpacas and llamas above 12,000 ft. All of the inhabitants of this area live on subsistence farming, using bullocks to plow their fields. There is not a car, tractor, or vehicle of any kind in sight. Some dwellings have electricity, most do not.  No running water to be seen. Trip was interesting as we stopped in many places learning about the history of the people. We visited Museums, villages, archeological sites, and churches. 

It seems to me that the jihad Muslims of today are following the same path as the Spanish took with 'Catholicism' 500 years ago in this country. Anyone who did not give up their faith and accept Jesus as the only saviour were savages, infidels, and deserved to be punished. Terrorism through religion reigned supreme.
