The town of Uyuni reminds me of a town in the wild west. There is nothing there but it is hot during the day and freezing cold at night. I'm glad we were only there for one afternoon, but it seems that its just a stop off before you go to the salt plains! ... Read more >

We´d heard about the Bolivian habit of protesting, and even seen evidence of it in Sucre and our guide had warned us that its very unusual to have a trip untouched by demonstration and today we had our share.......

We´ve been enjoying life in La Paz, as for the first time in ages we´ve spent four nights in one place!

Today was the first day in La Paz, and it started quite well for us. We went on a bus tour of the city in the morning and visited the Moon Valley. It is a weird place, it looks like a cave with the roof taken off!! It hasn't rained there for 50 years ... Read more >
