Well it has certainly been a while since the last entry I posted on the Internet, I say Internet because I have made an entry recently but due to the reliability of Internet and computers out here a humongous blog entry was completely lost and I have been to frustrated since to bring myself to writing it! I am still in Sucre and this morning not...

If a city can change from Sunday to Monday, that is certainly Sucre. What a change since yesterday! With most shops and official buildings closed yesterday it has suddenly turned into life today and there are literally thousands of people all over the place with the traffic collapsing the streets. We managed to find the tourist office where a yo...

I have heard that Sucre is really pretty but that there isn't much to do.  I didn't have much time here, but I found that it was very pretty and that there was lots to do in the surrounding areas.  I did lots of walking around the city and exploring since it was tough to get to the outside parts with the time that I had. I really liked...

Hoy es mi dia ultima en Sucre.  Very sad to leave!  Neeltje and I are on our way down south to meet  her sister on Dec. 28 in Buenos Aires.  Looking forward to the 45 hour bus trip!!! Itīs finally starting to feel like Christmas here  Este noche we had un fiesta de Navidad fil...

Sucre, the legal capital of Bolivia, is also known as the Cuidad Blanca on account of the plethora of beautiful whitewashed buildings in the town centre.  So impressive is this array of buildings that a certain organization has ascribed the city with "World Heritage" status (though I couldn't tell you the name of this organisation off the t...

Not sleeping too well, I got up late in the morning, actually when the swiss came by. Lucie woke up at the same time, as they had all been drinking till late in the night. We went to the bus station to reserve our tickets to Santa Cruz. I wanted to wait till the afternoon to see if I was up for a night bus ride. Packing the bags, taking a shower...

After gorging ourselves on piranha in the Pantanals, Marge and I felt sufficiently prepared for our foray into Bolivia. So after our dawn walk through the wilderness we took a bus to the border, crossed over into Bolivia and jumped onto the infamous 'Death Train' that links Quijarro to Santa Cruz. Apparently it became known as the ...

In a moment of drunken madness I apparently agreed to go horse riding, so Bjarnhilde a new found Norwegian friend and I set off for a canter through the city of Sucre into the dry wilderness. My faithful stead Hatsu pulled at the reins desperate to be let go and when I did eventually get the guts to let him loose he flew down the dusty road scar...

Hooray, hooray, my car is now sold!!  I got the news last week and now everything is signed and sealed, so I no longer have been fretting about it and having to check my e-mail every day!  (If anyone is looking to sell their car, or buy one - he does that too - then I can recommend Ashley Winston at Palmdale Motors, in Ealing, West Lon...

Sucre is the one of the 2 capital cities of Bolivia. This one is the capital that isn't the capital, but thinks it should be - so it says it is. The other capital (which is the capital and therefore doesn't need to say it is), is La Paz. In Sucre all the buildings are painted white by law. This is nothing to do with sugar, as isn't the city's na...
