Many views of Bolivia

The following pictures are from the last month of training. In the last few weeks, we have really seen alot of Bolivia. We visited the Cristo in Cochabama, visited the colonial town of Tarata. We also spent the last week traveling to Semipata, Pukara and Vallegrande for training. The following pictures are from our trips.



The sun setting over the Bolivian countryside.


A picture of Vallegrande


On the way back to Vallegrande from La Higeria the guys had to get out and clear some large rocks out of the way. Its pretty typical that there are landslides, especially during the rainy season. Yes, the road is meant for two cars and we were in a bus.


Us at La Higeria, the place where che guvara was killed. It is only 2 hours from out site and Mike will be promoting tourism for the Che Guvara trail.


A group of Bolivian youth sitting on top of a mountain. As part of our training, we helped these kids and a current volunteer maintain a hiking trail to incan ruins. At 10,000 ft its important to take breaks


Our group went on a hike during our time in Semipata. It is a one of the touristy spots where the amazon meets the Andes.



The views from the road, people in Bolivia farm on the side of mountains.



Mike with his birthday presents. A tradional bolivian hat chulo and a tradional handicraft.



The colonial city of Tarata. A person from our group will be working to tourism.



Mike and the Cristo in Coachabama. It is actually bigger than the cristo in Rio.

Yesterday, while I was at work, my cousin stole my iPad and tested to see if it can survive a thirty foot drop,
just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now broken
and she has 83 views. I know this is completely off topic but I had to share it with
someone!

Everything wrote was very logical. But, think about this, suppose you were to write a killer post title?
I mean, I don't wish to tell you how to run your blog, but suppose you added something that makes people want more? I mean "Many views of Bolivia" is kinda boring. You could peek at Yahoo's front page and see how they create news headlines to grab people to click.
You might add a related video or a pic or two to
grab readers excited about what you've written. In my opinion, it might bring your blog a little livelier.
