La Paz

Arrived in La Paz thinking I had recovered from the bad vomitting. Then... I got the *****!! SIGH!!!! This country hates me. First my throat hurts, now my ass. Glad to report that I am now feeling better, thanks to a great diet of Gatorade, yoghurt, chocolate and coke!

Good food, good prices

Due to my misbehaving stomach, we cannot eat at local food places, much less sample any street food (no exotics, unlike starfish in China). On the bright side, we get to eat at all the places listed "TOP END" in the LonelyPlanet because 1) i need to make sure the food is clean - or supposed to be clean; and 2) Top End = US$4 per main course. Enjoy the pictures of me enjoying food! And also some pictures of this crazy chaotic but characterful city. At 4,400m, La Paz is the world's highest capi...

I spent 1 May venturing around La Paz trying to find the airline office (Amaszonas) to get our refund, and only managed to succeed on May 2, because it was Labour Day, everything was closed, and there were massive rallies everywhere. Rob's halfway there, so we're gonna try and wing it and make it to Copacabana before our highly-coveted reservations with Hostal La Cupula are cancelled.

Logging lots of bus time in Bolivia

Arrived in La Paz on Monday afternoon. In Tiquina, Bolivia there is a ferry crossing. They made us exit the bus, get on a small boat (30 people or so), and reboard the bus on the other side. It only took about 30 minutes total but we watched a guy try to run after his bus. I still canīt figure out how he missed it!

Also, for some crazy reason, when we got to La Paz the bus stopped near the middle of town instead of the main terminal. Got a hotel nearby (Hostal Copacabana) - small room...

Bolivia - Days 7 , 8 and 9

Saturday, April 29th - Internet cafe in Sucre - 4:21pm Day 7 - Salar de Uyuni (Thursday, April 27) The next morning we visited the famous Salar de Uyuni, what most people that visit Bolivia consider the highlight of their trip. The place is the world's largest salt flat (12,000 sq km) and sits at 3650 m and covers. The place is truly surreal where some of the dry parts looks like you are driving through snow and others where you have about 10 cm of water over the salt, it seems like you are d...

I'm Going Solo!

Well, yesterday I did absolutely nothing except update this website, play cards, and talk to Tina. Today, however, is a different story. Today Mike and I got up around 830 had our last breakfast and packed our bags. I went and bought a ticket for La Paz, and left Copacabana at 1130. Mike and I have had a fantastic time together, but now he has to go to Alaska, and I have another month of traveling. I got into La Paz around 3 this afternoon and found a hostel(called Copacabana HA!) Since then ...

Laugh in the face of danger, or slide on my face!

... a 64km stretch of downhill mayhem. The first half is tarmac and the second section, narrow gravel is statistically considered the worlds most dangerous road. the reason being that it is only wide enough for 1 vehicle, with passing points. And because it is notorious for drunken local bus drivers and mad bolivians after staying awake all night, flying down it at ridiculous speeds and dropping off the sides. Oh and did I mention that it is a mountain pass dropping from 4800m to ...
