Sadly we realised that on such a short trip we really had to move on from this funky city. We hadnt had the time to visit the infamous prison or the coke dens but hey we would rather come home alive! At 8am we caught our bus from La Paz to cocacabama which is a small town on Lake titicaca. It didnt take us long luckily and so after a few stops and eating some mining street food we arrived and went to find a hostel with this guy H we had met on the bus. We found t...

So day 2 in Lap paz. Mike woke up at some stupid time in the morning (Aimee I dont quite know how this doesnt drive you crazy :) and we both grabbed some pancakes for breakfast before I headed back to bed. I felt so rough. Mike and Hannah were fine....b******s!! We all thought we must have spent a fortune the night before but it was 6 pounds! Finally we all got up around lunch time and headed to the local travellers hangout..olivers travels for some lunch. To giv...

We were all quite petrified to be driven around by a crazy bolivian drunk driver but what can you do when you are in the middle of nowhere with no other options. Our first stop was the famous salt flats of bolivia which are truely stunning! It is just crazy to be in the middle of a salt deser...

Well the night was bloody freezing even with sleeping bags and blankets....we felt so sorry for the poor guys who were on the tour with us and didnt have any sleeping bags. To get some idea of how cold it was, the temp was about minus 15. We ate some skanky rolls for breakfast and headed off in our death trap up through the mountains. The jeep got 3 punctured tyres through the day and we both couldnt believe how quickly these guys can change tyres. We were taken ...
