Bolivia and Chile High Desert

 

We went on a vacation to Bolivia and Chile with s&a expeditions the last week of October this year

This is an unidentified wildflower outside our hotel in La Paz Bolivia

Bolivia LaBarge brother has a little Park a lot like our Badlands here in Nevada and this is our guide and Brenda posing for photos

La Paz doesn't have street cars. They have gondolas overhead because the city is so dense and on so many hills that buses wouldn't be able to run through the streets

An example of how dense the housing is there

In that Park that looks like Nevada it has hoodoos and on this hoodoo there's there was a little cactus garden

Another view of the city from the gondola

Some of the mountains surrounding La Paz are around 20,000 ft high. La Paz itself is at 12,000 ft at the airport look more like 11,000 ft in the main city

Pigeons are found everywhere
