Im sitting at the computer in Lisas in the sun - Ive really missed sun! Lisa and Sam took us for a drive around yesterday where we went and had an icecream on the beach and saw One Tree Hill. Its literally a massive hill - I think it used to have a tree on it but now theres a pointy big memorial pillar on the top of the hill... It has great views anyhow from the top so it was a nice walk up. We also had some encounters with some not so friendly sheep on the way ...

So we're in New Zealand! It took us 23 hours of flying - pretty horrific! In flight entertainment was amazing though! Mel and I didnt sleep much but anna got a fair amount. Funnily enough, its anna whos napping now as well! At the moment we're at Lisa's (a friend of mine) at a wonderful house. She and Sam picked us up from the airport without any problems and weve had showers etc. Were planning on taking a bit of a nap and then going out to the park/botanical...

My journey home was very eventful! But altogether pretty awful. I tried to sleep a little at the airport in La Paz because check in was at like 4am and we got there at about midnight.

My last day in La Paz - The most dangerous road! We woke up really really early and headed out up the mountains. We were told to wear layers because it would be cold at the top but as we cycled down would get warmer... I was a little nervous and made sure I told our tour guide. He was this wacky guy with a long ginger goatee... but he had some brilliant stories! The best being that he was actually the founder of Gravity and started up the commercialisation of th...

We thought we would be driving till 5 but it turns out we got here at like 2 which is brilliant. Basically because im leaving on the 14th really early in the morning, I only have the 13th to explore La Paz. However, I am doing a Bike tour on the 13th all day so I really only had this afternoon to walk around. Im pretty lucky I can do the bike ride too - if we hadnt got the extra day in La Paz, the bike tour was set for the 14th and i would have missed it. Anywa...
