Post Office Saga After finding out where the post office is I headed over there only to be told they don't take parcels and only sell stamps! I need to go to La Paz or Puno! Think Pauline think! The girls I met yesterday said they were getting the bus to La Paz at 1pm today, maybe I could ask them very nicely? They weren't at the hostel when I got back from the post office but I knew they had left their bags to go off wandering so they would be back at some ...
