Rheumatoid Arthritis Eyes

De Sucre to La Paz via

This past month has been in Bolivia rich in meeting and "re" meeting

especially in Cochabamba ... We spent a week with

craftsmen, most Argentines, Chileans were hiding some still

here and there ...


   
  We failed to find free accommodation, so we spent part of our days has 

make semaforo (red light). I do not know why

here they are in port ...

As we say here, the formula is pretty simple. You take a strong team,
I named
  Cyrilo, our national Yannoch, your servant, 6 clubs, 3 balls, 3 nose 

clowns, a whistle and the indispensable cap Michel Cap

(see blog) to pick the menu frottin ...

The small problem is that the only lights when there are people who pass, only last


that 15 or 20 seconds ... In that time, we must still

a little juggling and then also make a small turn in the queue of cars, with a sentence

shock, history of getting a smile or another nugget to sink the tooth ...
 
must confess it's a bit of work to the chain, it requires



lot of energy, but it was still good type good laugh bars,
especially when the clubs without falling off or Yannoch dropped

all these balls by the limbo between Cyril and me ... Our toll

clowns worked without much problem in two or three hours

, we had enough to pay the hotel and eat ... We still had
same time to Disfruta (= advantage. Attention English term Frenchified)
of the day with our friend (s) craftsmen ...

  was found Alejandro, one of two craftsmen who we had 

hosted Tiger during our first week in Argentina, and Effe

a craftsman has met Humahuaca, northern Argentina.

Before returning to La Paz was

been doing a little tour has Tiquipaya, capital of the flower (and it feels really good

) and chicha (cider but feels a bit

least good). A small corner of paradise, 10 km from the center of Cochabamba, the

mountain, nature and a beautiful meeting with Yvan and (E) manuela

(half French, half-Venezuelan) who has just had a little

guys, just last month. We spent a few days with them,

just take time, juggling, see the chicks out of their

eggs, and drink chicha ... We also play lots of music with Rodrigo

another artisan who lived there too ... A real juke box

guitar, we redid our musical culture of Argentine rock

(for those who do not know, we invite you to discover Patricio Rey)!










And then it was back on the road (oh yes I read this book

Kerouac's really not bad) ... The road is a bit

our house in a way, or are our benchmarks, although it is never the same place ...






10/07/10 to 07/08/10



























There the road c ' was the Pan American at first he had to go up on the altiplano

through a pass at 4100m. Then, after

back down a bit, another pass at 4500m. Then the descent

quiet, with all due headwind up Caracollo,

the crossing for Oruro. And there is the Altiplano, so always

headwind and a lot of traffic.























The city of La Paz is very impressive. It is built in a bowl

, all around the slopes are covered with construction,

house except the Illimani mountain overlooking the city.
  It seems that everyone is in the street ... 

is one of the reflections that took place for some time and it

only 9 million people in Bolivia, but wherever you are, you always crosses

someone! ! We think it's because people are always out

... In the campaign in France was full of cross

villages with no life here is different ...







































In La Paz we had all gathered at the Casa de Ciclista to go

in a Reggae festival in the Yungas Coroico ... The Yungas is

just the beginning of the jungle, the rainforest, but it is still

between 1000 and 2000m, it's not the Amazon ... The festival was

rather likeable, some technical problems to begin

hour. In Indeed, there was no concert the day because
replaced by workshops of all kinds:
  yoga, meditation, puppet show and dances   Ari Krishna bitniks stuff ...).  

Guys scales began and ended around 20h to 23h.

place after the concert, but hey not easy to keep up 5 or 6 o'clock in the morning ...


Back in La Paz, foo (ants, Chives and Janou) are divided into

direction of isla de la Luna, with the project to install a solar shower, while we

we launched an expedition backpack and shoes clowns

on Inca trail in the Yungas.



And special bonus, a police car pursuit that we could shoot on the spot
