Hola! Now that I have found a dream computer its blog city! This next entry comes from Copacabana on the edge of Lake Titicaca, one of the highest navigable lakes in the world it sits at 3820m, is more than 230km long and 97km wide. It is a remnant of Lago Ballivian, an ancient inland sea, and straddles the Bolivia and Peru borders. The bus ride from La Paz was only 3.5 hours and went past fairly quickly. When we got to the edge of Lake Titicaca we all had to g...

I have found a great PC where we are now and hope to update you all with a few entries over the next few days.

In our car we had 2 young English guys from Hertfordshire called Simon and Johnny that had t...

Ok so we have finally arrived in Bolivia.... We took a night bus from Salta to the border town, La Quiaca in Argentina. We had booked some comfortable executive seats and so I thought it would be a good idea to put my pyjama´s on for the ride and change and shower when we arrived. Most bus stations we have been to provide showers and you always see other people freshening up so i thought i would join them. When we arrived at 7.30am in the morning everything was...
