Arrived safely in Bolivia via hydofoil at vast expense and apparently courtesy of the Bolivian navy who seem to have ´very generously´donated their services to stranded tourists in their time of need! Copacabana has a beautiful bay and is quite picturesque in a very shabby sort of way. Our hotel, hostel is not ok. There are bare wires hanging from the shower unit and all the plugs spark if we try to use them. As a result we are honing our technique of washing with a modicum of water from the cold tap. Went on a boat trip to the Isla de Sol yesterday, a charming island but everywhere has steep climbs and instead of getting used to it and nipping up the steep paths I seem to be getting worse. The altitude here is 3800 and I notice it. I think I am going to buy a bungalow when I get home! It was lovely to receive messages from Joy and Ross. Ross, I will look up that link you sent me and feedback. Keep them coming. We are off to Le Paz later today, nothing planned except for a two day visit to the salt flats at Uyuni which I understand is going to be absolutely freezing but outstandingly beautiful. There is also a witches market in Le Paz that we were told not to miss. What we are both really looking forward to is a hot shower! Talk soon.
