Basquet con los Lustrabotas
Basketball tournament with the Shoe shiners.

Almuerzo con los Lustrabotas
Lunch with the YFC crew and the Shoe shiners after the tournament. Some of the roof blew off during the soup and it wasn´t even a windy day. Hmmm Al frisco dining.

San Fransisco
A view of San Fransisco from the roof. The Construction of this church was began in the 1500´s.

San Fransisco
Me standing on the roof of San Fransisco. Where else could you walk around on the roof of such an old building.

San Fransisco
One of many stained glass windows in San Fransisco.

Las Lustrabotas
Shoe Shine girls outside the house the YFC crew are fixing up. I dont think I have seen a girl with the traditioanl balaclava mask.

The Youth for Christ crew
Some of the YFC crew and some shoe shiners on our way to the soccer match which saw us gringos go down 6 2. Even though we had two bolivian imports.

Make out point
Some of the YFC crew and me at La Paz´s make out point. So pretty.

4,700 Meters
La Cumbra and me. The road is in the back ground. this section was so much fun and involved overtaking trucks and buses on corners at ridiculous speeds.

Why they fall off the edge
This is a great shot and shows why so many trucks and buses go over the edge. This is only the medium sized bus that travels this road and is the biggest thing I would travel in back to La Paz. Lucky for us we scored a van going back up.

Las Chicas
Laura and Julie waiting for James´s bike to be fixed about half way through the ride.

The ride back up
Just one of many trucks we overtook coming back up the "Death Road". There was only 11 of us in the van for this trip so it was luxury in Bolivian standards.

Hi Ryan, That was some ride. Its amasing there arn't more casualties if you ask me!! Those roads reminded me of PNG. I only went in a PMV once and the 'road" we travelled was more akin to a riverbed with its craters and slips. Hope your ankle is back to normal soon. You are so right about perservering and just keeping on trying. Some of those people a sheer saints.Take care
