La Paz
Breakfast at 7, because our “A-team“ bus fetched us at 7:30. Full of anticipation but also with an anxious glance to the sky we went up 4600m. After a quick explanation how to use the gear shift and so on we drove downhill on our bikes.
The weather was not loyal today - maybe because one of the “Angels” – Susan could not participate :-(
The first 30 km we went downhill on a paved road. The last 30 km we drove on the most dangerous road of the world (gravel, stones, abysm, waterfalls…) – at least until 2 years ago when it was still used as regular road.
First of all – we all arrived well, nobody took the shortcut directly down :-).
Chilled to the bone, wet to the underwear, lulled by the mist, we enjoyed the view later from lower regions.
After a successful descend we enjoyed shower, pool and lunch.
Back full of adrenaline, we tried out the nightlife of La Paz – some until 3 in the morning.
