Samaipata, Bolivia
Thursday, April 15, 2010
In the morning we moved hostels to very basic but very clean hostel which did not have a name. 2 pounds a night so not complaining & even had warm showers. After a night off the drink we were back on it to celebrate Lianne´s birthday. Full day planned with a taxi for the day to visit El Fuerte (ruins just outside of Samaipata) & waterfalls. For a full day the cost was 2.50 pounds per person. Such great value. In the ruins was very mistical, in amongst the clouds.The waterfalls were beautiful with so many butterflies, grasshoppers however not enough water to swim in as the dry season has started. Dinner at La Vaca Loca (mad cow) for you guessed it some more gret beef. We ended up back in the pub however was a little more behaved this time.
Love The Watties
