La Paz - Leaving Bolivia

Bolivia is the real wild South America. I¨m staying in La Paz in the moment to catch a train to the Salt Plains. There is the option to take night busses daily, but in the moment I try to avoid night busses at all. The downside is that the train goes only twice a week !!! I¨m waiting for the train leaving friday and a 3 night tour ( 90 dollars ) across the salt plains will take me to the north of Chile - Pedro de Atacama. All going well I will arrive in Chile on monday and will take a few busses south to Santiago to catch the flight to Rio on Saturday 22.12.2007.

The shoe cleaning boys all over La Paz are wearing masks, because they do not want to be known doing this job !
