La Paz, Bolivia


Our first stop was at La Paz, Bolivia.

We both were somewhat affected by the altitude (about 12,000 ft) but we settled down after a couple of days. Drinking Coca tea definitely helped alleviate the symptoms.
The city was a bit of a surprise - it looked pretty much like a slightly run down European city. I was expecting a more "third world" feel.
For all the facts about the city, see Wikipedia here.
