La Paz - Day 1
Friday 18th April
Had a bit of a sleep-in and then indulged in the free pancake brekkie on offer at ABH befote meeting Dave at Casa Gravity at 1100. He then took us around the corner to the Gravity workshop and showed us all the cool bikes and gear there, and we manager to pick up a new chain-ring set for my bike and new handle grips for Andrew's.
Then Dave took us to Café Alexander´s (a bit of a chain like Starbucks) for coffee and cake (and we met more Gravity people there) – it was damn good coffee and cake – oh yeah! After stuffing ourselves full, we went on a bit of a walking tour of central La Paz on the way to meet Anna when she finished work at 3pm. We booked in to do a mountain bike ride down “The World´s Most Dangerous Road” with Dave and Anna on Sunday – woohoo, can´t wait!
We went to Dumbo´s Café (yes – the Elephant) for lunch, and then wandered around the markets for a while before heading back to Casa Gravity for a bit of R & R before dinner. We all ended up going to a fab little Indian restaurant for dinner and had some pretty nice curry for the first time on our trip. We then walked back to ABH via the markets around Plaza San Francisco.
