I had a little difficulty getting back to La Paz. At first I thought my return flight was Wednesday morning so I turned up at 7am at the office all ready to go...and then realised that my ticket was actually for the following day (ops, ok that was rather numpty of me) Later that day I found out my flight was cancelled so I had to book another flight back with Amazonas (600B for a single, slightly more than 485B with TAM but atleast I knew I was actually able to...

We bumped into 2 older German guys who were a great laugh so ended up spending the afternoon with them booking the Death Road together.
