It is safe to say that today has not been our most eventful day. To be honest it could be summarised in two words, "Abigail's ill"!
From four in the morning she has been back and forth not feeling well with stomach cramps and other symptoms. After a conversation with her mum, the diagnostic seems to be a case of altitude sickness. It is even more of a shame as she seemed to be loving La Paz and we have got a long journey on the night bus to Uyuni too.
She has got some anti-sickness pills to to try and help but the crux of the day we have spent with her in bed trying to make her feel a bit better. There have been times where she has perked up slightly but she is so ill it is hard for her to be able to move.
Once back from the salt lakes tour in Uyuni, we are heading to a new hostel so dropped our bags off there in storage and took what we need for the next couple of days in a bag to the bus terminal. After waiting for over an hour for our bus to turn up we have finally taken our seats and it seems relatively comfortable. Paying a couple of Bolivar extra to be on a bus full of other travellers all undertaking the same adventure, should make it a fun couple of days ahead. Although we are booked on a tour with a guide who speaks very little English, it just means we get to make up our own stories for every stop making it almost a certainty that our versions are going to be much more interesting.
