la paz, bolivia

La Paz was not a kind city to us. The weather wasn't great while we were there, Shawn was hospitalised and he also had to make a visit to the dentist. All factors meant that we actually didn't see a lot of the city even though we were there for a week.


We had decided to treat ourselves to a hotel after only staying in hostels for 8 months. It was pretty nice to have a decent, clean space with a comfortable bed and waking up to an impressive breakfast spread every morning. Unfortunately one morning Shawn woke up with terrible abdominal pain and was taken to a hospital clinic. After an injection in the bum, 3 antibiotic IV drips, 3 hydration IV drips, a horrible night in the hospital and a few tears from Kassandra, we were finally able to return to our comfy hotel. Only for Shawn to then have to go to the dentist and get his crack tooth repaired, which he had found while eating a piece of bread.


Unfortunately we didn't get to see much of the city.
