Being tourists in La Paz and Copacabana

As we were running short on time, and we had struck busy and boring roads, we decided to jump on a bus and head straight to Copacabana.  Our new philosophy over here is that we don´t ride nice we only ride spectacular -life is too short right now.
We´ve heard that cycling through the Peruvian mountains is mind blowing so we need to get to Cusco and get started asap.

Here are a couple of photos of La Paz.  It is an amazing city situated in a huge crater.  Thousands of houses stacked almost upon each other, mostly all of red brick.  There were quite a few trees and lots of greenery though, which made it look nicer.  We were pleased not to be riding on the busy roads with almost no shoulder.




However we´ve had some cool experiences being tourists here in Copacabana.  Here are some photos of our last few days.
