Neil has a go : Welcome to my world of misplaced commas and non sequiturs. Ceri has spent many hours giving a great rendition of our travels .Days 52-55 . We left Punta Arenas easily enough courtesy of Sky airlines the South American equivalent of EasyJet . First to Santiago then to Iquique. So lovely to feel warm and no wind . Our high rise AirBnB was on the 12th floor with great views . We spent the next day cycling around and swimming in the sea … a bit rough … lovely big long pool by the high rises too . We are trying to improve our Spanish by watching subtitled movies but it’s still too fast . This is the World of Ceviche. Raw fish with lemon juice absolutely stunning taste or was that the Pisco sour the Andean Gin and Tonic . Big plans to introduce it to Culmstock on our return ! Next day travel to Arica which is the last town before Peru . On the beach we found some seven aside Rugby in the sand . Very competitive watch out England ! Fiascos come in many guises and so it was with our ticket I had bought on the internet for our onward journey to La Paz the next day . The girl needed a printed copy of it otherwise we could not travel etc . So back and forth from one booth to another. It all took about 2 hours to sort . Lesson learnt … just turn up at the bus station . Several companies going to the same place all the time . We stayed in a sort of cell that Ceri had selected but ideal as it was next to the bus station and cheap as chips . Excitement next day our trip to La Paz only 8 hours it says . Armed with Acetazolamide as we were going over pass at 4,750 metres . The bus took 14 hours . However one of the most exciting bus journeys I have ever been on . Delays caused by 2 hour waits for roadworks . High high high to the border and much thunderous stamping of passports. The arrival to La Paz at night is spectacular. First thorough dull El Alto on the rim a city in itself and then to look down on a Milky Way of lights of La Paz in the bowl below . We eventually got to our AirBnB at 23.00 . They had kindly waited up for us . Tired but appreciative of an amazing bus journey.
