He wore an inflatable pillow around his neck on and off the plane. Upon arriving in some airport not in Rurre, i had to get into Rurre.

Puno > Copa-Copacabana > La Paz

Monday, July 16th, 2007

It´s 6 am or something like that and I just got off a bus ride on one of the worst roads in the world, it was unsealed for 15 hours. So this is by far the best time to update the blog.
