In Transit: Beginning Bolivia - July 5th
http://american-transit.blogspot.com/2007/07/beginning-bolivia-july-5th.html
Thursday, July 5, 2007. Beginning Bolivia - July 5th. We make it to the other side and into Bolivia relatively easy. Just a stroll across the border and a whole lotta line waiting. We are stay a couple nights in border town Copacabana, a lovely little town right on Lake Titicaca. Our room has heat, a great restaurant and hammocks to use by day. We are heaven. The next day we take a ferry to Isla del Sol, supposed birthplace of Manco Inca (the 1st Inca) and his sister-bride. Camera slingin in Bolivia.

In Transit: La Paz y La Lucha Libre
http://american-transit.blogspot.com/2007/08/la-paz-y-la-lucha.html
Sunday, July 8, 2007. La Paz y La Lucha Libre. On our way south, we stop over in the capital of La Paz. We spend our few days here suffering from a variety of mysterious illnesses and discover the joy of owning a hot water bottle. And.I know it´s a silly detail, but we really loved the brightly painted collectivo buses. But clearly, looking back on our time in La Paz, what stands out is the visit to nearby suburb of El Alto and seeing Lucha Libre. In Bolivia, a. My favorite was Yolanda La Amorosa, but Su...

In Transit: El Cemetario de Trenes
http://american-transit.blogspot.com/2007/08/el-cemetario-de-trenes.html
Thursday, July 12, 2007. El Cemetario de Trenes. Due to a road blockade, we spend a couple more days in La Paz than anticipated. We muster up all the warmth we can, before finally taking a bus to Oruro where we can catch the night train, Wara Wara del Sur, to Uyuni. We´d heard many stories about the "wind chill factor" in Uyuni and Jen is particularly unsettled about the whole thing. The world´s largest salt flat), and people in Uyuni aren´t particularly friendly to outsiders. Gostei muito desse post e s...

In Transit: Onward to Puno - July 2nd
http://american-transit.blogspot.com/2007/07/onward-to-puno-july-2nd.html
Monday, July 2, 2007. Onward to Puno - July 2nd. The first American Transit casualty is the train from Cusco to Puno. We arrived to the station with tickets in hand only to find out the ¨tracks were broken." We later learn that this suspicously vague description means that the tracks have been shut down by a blockade of protesting teachers. We get our money back and I weep a little bit on the inside for my train to Puno. And "stop this bus! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Camera slingin in Bolivia.

In Transit: June 2007
http://american-transit.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, June 30, 2007. The Heights of Machu Picchu. This one is something of a crazy Super-8 ad. Notice the Super-8 camera in the bottom left corner capturing a time-lapse of the sun rising over the city. Here is where I followed a herd of llamas through the labrynthine city. And the rest. although they all appear to be postcards, I swear I took them myself! Friday, June 29, 2007. Los Trenes de Aguas Calientes - June 29th. As the name suggests, the Vistadome has muchas buenas vistas of the high jungle.

In Transit: May 2007
http://american-transit.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 27, 2007. Beginning of the Beginning. Friday was the 1st year anniversary of our nuptial visit to City Hall and my last day at Columbia. The reality begins to set in. The beginning of this concocted fantasy begins. I take a picture of my empty desk before I leave. Proof. It's really happening. We celebrate by going to a Peruvian restaurant and eating ourselves silly. Saturday, May 26, 2007. The American Transit Route. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Camera slingin in Bolivia.
