Crossing The Border

What an experience, just a shack in the middle of the Andes with a single border guard but after reading about long delays I breezed through with the minimum of fuss. Talk about chilled the guard actively encouraged me to take photo, anywhere else in the world I would have been arrested.
I´ve joined up with a tour of 3 four wheel drive vehicles to head high across the Andes and deep into Bolivia but in doing so had my first experience of altitude sickness. Luckily it didn´t last too long and chewing on cocoa leaves does help.
