Worst ever... [Sucre, Bolivia, 05/04/04]
Since I am currently searching for the worst place in the US I may as well make this the worst entry ever. I am frustrated by the crawling internet here and trying to upload pictures for a couple of days so I'll just use this space to vent a little. Grrr - the bastards in the internet cafe are playing Shakira, non-stop. How much worse can my life get? And I need to eat. And I need space on my camera for more pictures for the Salar de Uyuni - a Salt Desert - which is where we're heading tomorrow.
I didn't get to hang out much in Sucre either. Shame, but instead we went trekking to middle of nowhere which is a place I always like (Maragua in fact it is called). So, nutshell time: Beautiful nature, yadiyadiyaa; exhausting hike for 5 hours there; on arrival in Maragua played a basketball game against the teachers of the 'frontier school' there and the altitude smacked me down again reducing my height advantage; slept in the school; jogged back downhill in about 2 and a half hours early next morning while bumping into kids on their 2 hour up-hill school-run; ultimately made it back to Sucre in a cattle truck chock full of people. Yeah it was all cool and fun but I am feeling nasty right now and am in the mood to be mean so I won't praise it or talk more about it. Some of the pics are kinda pretty though.
But actually they're still stuck in some internet cable somewhere in Bolivia.
Ladidadidadi.
Ok, almost done. So here goes, Albums Bolivia 1 and 2 with pics of Cochabamba and Sucre, some panoramas and some pics from the hike to middle of nowhere.
I feel much better now, finally done.
Love to all and begging forgiveness for grumpiness earlier - nothing personal. Just my deep-rooted hate for the world and all...
