Day 1

Made it to Bolivia safe and sound...and unfortunately, luggageless. But I'm not concerned yet. I have had an overwhelming peace about this all along. I stopped in many places along the way.

  • Miami flight stopped in La Paz, then Santa Cruz where I went
  • From there, I bought a flight to Cochabamba which stopped in Sucre, then on to Cochabamba
Needless to say, it's been an adventure. Got picked up at the airport and welcomed by some wonderful people at the guesthouse. The drive over was nice to just drink in all that I could. It reminds me so much of PerĂº. It reminds me of my experience in Huaraz when I just instantly fell in love.

The best thing I saw on the drive over was a cow sitting in the front yard somewhere. Just chillin. Loved it! ha Well, at 3 they are leaving to play with the little kids and babies in an orphanage. I think I'm going to go along because I figure, might as well get used to sleeping at a normal time, rather than sleeping midday today.

I think I'm going to go move around since my fingers and toes are getting terribly cold and will soon be numb. Slight exaggeration. But my tea is gone so nothing left to warm my hands. I'll be investing in some gloves and a hat at the market, pretty sure.

I think I'm going to be able to post pictures so be on the lookout!
