ok so i have been out of internet acesss for a while so will some up the last 6 days in a quick one!!! welll Bolivia started off pretty poo! we had lots fo rain and then we arrived at La Paz Airport to fly to Sucre at 9 to fly at 10 but the flight was delayed till 12 so we waited and waited and then at 1 the cancelled it!!! so our options were a) stay another night in a city that we did nto like and maybe catch the flight the next day but it could be cancelled!! or b) a 12 hour night bus!!! whoop whoop bus ti was! but we could not get the nice bus so we ened up on the smelliest bus i have ever been on but i slept most of it thank god!!
By the time we got to Sucre we were so tried that we sat and chilled for the day then had a walk around in the evening!
the next mornign we took a taxi to Potasi ( sorry spelling is way out) where we visited a Silver mine! was a crazy experience as the spanish had takem most of the silver so the Bolivians jsut work for them selves! we only saw 2 miners and deiced it looked like the wqorst job ever they work 12 hour days 7 day weeks to take one 4 pounds an day! it was shocking to see!
we had a 6 hour bumpy bus try to Uyini ( this was worst than my 12 hour one and for saome reason this smelly woman did nto have a seat and she bacially sad leaning agasins me for the jounrey and she stank!!! yuk yuk yuk! ( the next night i had a mnight mare about her it was that bad!)
we only spend the evening in Uyini but had to prey all night for good weather as if it rained we could not go on the Salt tFlats and this would of destryed Bolivia for us! but some how we woke up to bright sunshine! and had the most amazing day i can not describe the salt flats any other way than imagen it is like being in the clouds or being able to walk on water! it was crazy! the photos will follow soon and you will be able to see what i mean!
in the middle of the salt flats is an island called Fish island and we stayed there for lunch! and had a photo shoot heehee we got carried way! that evening we spent it in an hotel made out of salt, not onlyt the main structure but the tables, chair, bed minus the materess thank god! it had 2 hours of electrisity in the evening! was crazy!
the next day we stent traveliong in the truck to see a Volcano. Flamingos and some other randomthings before ariving at the next nights accommadation which was dorms with no shower and 2 hours electric again!
with a 4.30 start to see some geisers which dont get me wrong were beautiful but i am not sure it was worth getting up for!! then we went to the green lake ( cant remember they bolivian name) and took the most amazing photos! the mountains were reflected in the water!! beautiful!!! we were off to Chile today so had the fun of crossing the Boarder! was easy to get out of Bolivia jsut had to pay 2 pounds but getting in to chile no so easy! we had to get all our luggage out on a table so a dog to walk along ans sniff then onpen it so they could have a nose!!! she did not look in mine for long haha!!!
oso that brings you to now! i am in San Pedro where the sun in shining and it is hot hot hot! going to have a chilled out eveing playing cards me thinks!!
