La Paz - Day 46 - 14/11/2012 (Wednesday)The bus to La Paz had to be the most random and weirdest bus ride ever. 10 metres after leaving the bus station we made our first stop. We can only assume to pick up people who were paying the driver directly. However there were no free seats so they had to sit on the stairs of the bus. I felt a bit bad for this one woman as she sat there for several hours. The bus driver also took the toilet door handle for no reason and...

It's almost an hour from the Bolivian border but for some reason the office is here. We queued for almost an hour as there was a huge queue and only seemed to b...
