Just a quick entry as this is my last blog from Bolivia!! Arrived in La Paz at 5.30 this morning after a surprisingly good bus journey from Potosi. Have been exploring the city today which is pretty nice but nothing special compared to other cities, although the view of the mountain is great as it is the highest capital in the world. People watching is great in Bolivia and we spent ages watching the shoe shine man (not sure if that was his official title!) and st...

We went on a boat trip which took us under the 2nd biggest waterfall and it...

Well it has been an interesting few days!!!!! On our last full day in Salvador (Tuesday) we went to colourful Pelhourinho which was really cool! Had a wander around the cobbled streets at all of the artwork and little shops. The area is really pretty and all of the buildings are so interesting. There was capoeira in the streets which was great to watch but we felt a bit harrassed by the street sellers and didn´t feel particularly safe. Had a delicious dinner of ...
