Uros reed islands on lake Titicaca

A short visit to a couple of the reed islands on the inner part of Lake Titicaca.
These islands are floating in about 10mtrs of water.
The roots of the reeds are used as the base then the reeds are laid cross ways to build up a layer, this is a cobtinual process. The reeds are used for the island, houses, boats and some of the reed can be used for food.
