Here's how it went: 
Woke up at five at Lago Colorado in southern bolivia, and spent the day in the jeep driving to a few places, and then back to Uyuni, the major city in the north.  We got back at seven at night- except for stopping for lunch, we spent the entire time in the Jeep. Went and got some dinner in Uyuni, then took a nap until 1, where we took the Wara Wara Del Sur, an 8 hour train that went to Oruro.  Got in there at nine in the mornin, grabbed a bite to eat, wrote a blog entry, then took a three hour bus to La Paz, all the way in the northish of Bolivia.  Got here at around.  All in all, it was a 36 hour travel timespan.  Craziness!  
I'm currently staying in a hostal in La Paz called "adventure brew Hostal" or something along those lines.  Its got all you can eat pancakes in the morning, free internet, clean beds (of course), and a free home brewed beer everyday.  I think theres also a bar in the Hostal, but i've yet to look for it.  All for six dollars a night. 
Tomorrow we're going to be touring about La Paz, possibly getting a friend of Bri's to show us around.  Its a pretty interesting city, snuggled up in a valley.  And its at 11000 feet, give or take 200 feet.  If I hadn't already spent four days at this altitude, that'd be an issue, but really startin to get along quite nice with it.  
Ok, gotta run and eat!
