Dear friend of mine I am on one of the floating islands of Lake Titicaca. It is a very beautiful and unusual island. There are some small cottages on this island. Only some families live here. They have domesticated local animals to assist with producing food and other purposes. There are water birds that catch fish. These birds are kept with wool tied to their feet. There are some boats. I like the island very much. It is very unusual to live here. With love Tom.
