La Paz, Bolivia
5/6 Thu - 6/6 Fri
Our noses are still sored from the altitude and blood is invariably every morning. We have not been under three thousand and seven hundred meters for the last two weeks and the air is dry as in a desert. After a couple of hours in a bus from Puno in Peru we finally arrived to the highest capital in the world and the world's highest golf course, not to be forgotten also carrying the highest football pitch. Most of visiting teams do not have the energy to maintain ninthy minutes here. In 1963, playing at home, Bolivia wins South American football championships. 
High mountains surrounds the great cutural center of Bolivia.
The city was founded in the middle of the 1500´s of the conquistador Mendoza which reflects in buildings and metropolitan sights. La Paz like also to boast about the highest five star hotel in the world - President. For SEK900 per night you can get a suite with two rooms, two bathrooms and a magnificent view of he city. Our plan - to stay there if we will survive biking down "The most dangerous road in the world". As far as we know - the lamb from the lunch menu is exquisite.
Traffic lights are used in La Paz and can be useful to you sometimes. Beware though, a red light is more like a recomendation than a statutory rule. Streets and road are like home, occasionally devided into lines when they are wide enough. It is meaningless here where the bus, the bike or the car tend to drive upon instead of within the lines, cruising to pass vehicles that stops wherever and whenever to pick up or let someone off. If there is something not beeing suitable - blow the horn and drive.
Actually, traffic above in an organized manner ... we are far from the "Auto Pista"
