In Bolivia, nothing comes all that easy. In fact, just deciding to go to the candy store probably means a 100meter walk up a 90 degree hill at nearly 4kms above sea level.No easy feat.And it would appear, that such circumstances have molded a country and culture into something that resembles rough, hard, and determined…but with a taste for the extravagant. La Paz has a strip with flashy lights and interesting eateries that only means a good time…even if the short walk to the restaurants left you slightly out of breath.More to come …

Hi Joel and O’Neil:
Sounds like you are beginning to become somewhat seasoned at world travel. I admit I have just glanced through your interesting comments so far, but hopefully will read more soon. Am off to fish for Tarpon in Costa Rica in two weeks, so you see, Joel, 34 years after venturing off to circumnavigate the Globe myself, I am still an avid traveller, with so many more places to see! Good luck on your next leg, keep healthy, and remember the street cons are often more clever than you, so always appear deeply impoverished, it helps. Chuck
