Copacabana and La Paz - Here We Come!





Thursday 17th April

Had a bit more of a look around Copacabana in the morning – saw the Cathedral with the famous Virgen de Copacabana statue and had a nosey around the food and craft markets. Then we jumped on a bus to La Paz in the afternoon, arriving about 1700 at The Adventure Brew Hostel (ABH), which is owned by the same people as Anna and Dave work for at Gravity.




Anna arrived to meet us about 1830 and we walked to their “local” – Oliver´s Travels Pub – which is owned by an Englishman named Ollie, who used to guide for Gravity. So, we hung out there for a while and then headed over to Casa Gravity (where Anna and Dave live, in a very nice part of town called Sopacachi) to meet Dave after he finished work for the day.

We ended up back at Ollie´s for dinner with a few of the other Gravity guides and had great laughs when one of the guides fell asleep at a table full of gringo girls he didn´t know!
