Sunday night we arrived back to the Wild Rover and celebrated our low bite quota with some well deserved drinks!
Monday, we treated ourselves to a lazy day, some people went shopping, some stayed in bed munching on kit kats!
Tuesday, we rose at 6am to make our way to Oliver's to meet out Death Road group with Gravity! After introductions we made the hour bus journey to the top of death road, after a safety brief, we set off down the 22km tarmac road at high speed! After that it was onto the rocky/bumpy old death road! We manoeuvred our way down the remaining 33km carefully after one of our group had a tumble at the top, requiring some stitches! At the bottom we had a beer and headed to the animal sanctuary for dinner and chocolate brownies! ??
We decided to drive back up the old death road to see the steep drops an fab views (only regretting it at one stage when we had to reverse for a lorry to pass!) We arrived at the hostel about 10pm, and retired for the night!
Wednesday, we started the morning with the red cap walking tour, who showed us around the markets of La Paz, San Pedro prison and the squares of the city! After that another spot of shopping and some planning time!
Thursday, we got up and ventured out to the cable cars, to see the posh part of the city! Stopping in the an American shopping centre to get some frozen yogurt! After that we got our last supper in the wild rover and went to the bus terminal to catch our overnight bus to Uyuni with Cruz del Nur.
