We arrived in La Paz on October 17th, 2008. On the bus into town we got a good view of La Paz, which is situated in a valley at 3600 meters (highest capital city in the world). It´s very busy with traffic and people and the city seems like one big market (at least here in the center). We are not affected at all by the altitude, because we have been mostly above 3200+ meters for the last 7 weeks.
We haven´t been doing much in La Paz except souvenir shopping, checking out city center a little (went to witchcraft market and saw a parade) and mostly finishing off this blog and getting ready to leave. We leave South America on October 20th, which is the end of our trip and therefore this will be our last post. Paulien will go back to Holland to work and Brian will make a detour via Australia (for a wedding) and Thailand (for a holiday).
If you are just interested in looking at only photos then you can visit the flickr sets (all these photos are in our blog).

What!?
You're (going) back already.
I've hardly had time to keep up reading your blog.
The stories and pictures are still great.
(The quality of the pictures is great as well by the way.)
