Bolivia (Julian) Jan 2015

Bolivia Highlights:
    We enjoyed the capital of Bolivia, La Paz. It is the highest altitude capital in the world and you can feel it when walking around the city. We were there in Mid to Late January and there was a huge festival going on that was really interesting and a great opportunity to experience their culture. From La Paz we traveled to the Salt Flats and arrived in the morning, did a tour and then left that night. The city that is the staging area for salt flat trips is a hole in the wall place and I would try to not spend a night there. We only did a day trip to the salt flats but 3 day trips are available and we should have done one. The salt flats are one of the coolest places we had ever been and a must do it you are in that part of the world. When we left the salt flats we really wanted to travel directly into Argentina instead of the traditional route that goes into Chile. We took the worst bus ride of our lives and would not recommend it, take the route that the other tourists take.
