La Paz

After an unexciting breakfast of a tough roll (standard at this altitude) and fruit juice, we wandered around central La Paz and upon the recommendation of Thomas, an American guy in the hostel, ended up at Dumbo's for Anna to get a decent coffee. I ended up with the most ginormous slice of chocolate cake with 3 scoops of ice cream (extra scoop for not wanting cream) - it very nearly defeated me, but with a bit of help I managed!

We then wandered to St Francisco's church and rows of stalls selling llama stuff, guitars (Anna got very excited) and some witchy voodoo stuff.

We had some fresh oj, then went back to the hostel to rest. The altitude was taking it's toll on me so we went next door (Etno; 70B) for a quick pizza - one of the best so far!

Unlike Sucre which is fairly small and the people wander along at snail pace, La Paz is large and seems like a proper capital city, even has a Burger King and Subway (I wouldn't let Anna go in).

On the advice of some Irish girls in the hostel we emailed a tour company in the jungle who arranged our flights for tomorrow - with no pre-payment!!Baca selengkapnya
