Doxycycline = Sun Burn

Thu, 11 Oct 2007 | By netsy19 | Views [7533] | Comments [3]

The bus to Rurrenabaque, Bolivia didn’t have any chickens on it....  Although it did leave 2 hours late, have 5 or 6 giant bags strapped to the roof 3 or 4 full gas canisters in under the passengers, no air conditioning, and no bathroom. Oh, and did ... Read more >

Animals in the Pampas... Can I eat it?

Sun, 7 Oct 2007 | By netsy19 | Views [13063] | Comments [1]

Breakfast, then   anaconda hunting.   Translation: three hours of wandering thru the pampas (read grass and swamp) in “wellies” looking for a snake.    Heather, part of the    hard drinking couple from England (they’d both have a beer around 10am) ... Read more >

Titicaca & La Paz

Fri, 5 Oct 2007 | By vietnamviking | Views [894] | Comments [2]

After speeding through Peru, we've now arrived in La Paz, Bolivia. A grimey and chaotic city, but its liveliness definitely makes up for it. There are street stalls everywhere, selling everything and nothing you'd ever want, and traffic and people ... Read more >

So… Bolivia is apparently on fire. It seems that this is the time of year to burn all the land for crops, and by the look of the air they really are burning ALL the land. In La Paz it is practically impossible to see the other side of the city. The ... Read more >

La Paz here I come

Wed, 3 Oct 2007 | By netsy19 | Views [786]

I’ve made it to Bolivia. It only required I: a) Get a cab from my hotel... Stupidly, I thought my hotel might call me a cab  (silly me, where would I ever get this idea) With my broken Spanish the guy behind the desk was aware that a ¨taxi¨ was ... Read more >

Well....after 27hrs through the US, gbp 200 later and a hell of a lot of hassle and tears (by me), we finally arrived in La Paz, Bolivia. The highest airport in the world, the town´s altitude is not to be sniffed at, we were literally falling over and ... Read more >
