We got our hostel to book the La Paz bus tickets...turns out she didnt pay so we had a rush to get back, complain and go back again but finally made it onto the bus, it was outstanding in comparison to the other buses so the 12 hours was comfortable and we even arrived 30mins early! The views coming into La Paz were amazing, it really is up in the clouds, the sun was rising as we got in. We found a cute little hostel and despite travelling overnight got tempted t...

We didn't fall off the side of the mountain - although it was a close one.

We sort of got used to it after a while and were more troubled by the severe over-crowing of the bus and the women who were almost sat in my lap for the entire journey.

I was not a happy bunny and had a major "episo...

It turns out the public holiday in Santa Cruz was because it was the birthday of the city! To help them celebrate we went down to the river with the French couple and checked out the river party! We were advised not to go to the river as its dangerous at night but it seemed fine to me. There were loads and loads of cars in the river, which was half shallow water and half sand, we walked around for a bit then went for a couple of beers, Sarah has also been drinkin...
