Dirty, Dirty Girls

It's official. We are dirty, dirty girls. We are down to our last pair of underwear and last pair of socks. In fact, I have on capris and its only 50 degrees outside. I'm chilly but its worth it to have my pants cleaned. I don't think that Amber and I expected to go through our clothes so quickly but we had to wear so many layers in Uyuni...in fact we wore two pairs of underwear to keep our booties warm.

So today we took our clothes to the laundry place and it should be done tonight. We have about 12 kilos of laundry, about 95% of our clothes, and it will cost us around $12 for it all to be washed, dried, and folded. Not too shabby I suppose.

The weather in Potosí has been far better than Uyuni. In fact, Uyuni is just a crappy, crappy city in total. It, by far, has been our least favorite city.

Amber and I have routed out the rest of our trip. We leave tomorrow for Sucre for 2 days and then to La Paz for 3 days and then a short trip to Copacobana for a few days of much needed rest and enjoyment of the beach. Then we will head to Peru to visit Cuzco, Aguas Calientes, Maccu Pichu, Cuzco (for one night), Arequipa, Lima, and Tumbes. Then on to Ecuador where we plan on staying in Cuenca and then on to Quito (then to the market an hour north of the city and to the middle of the world). Then home. Seems like a lot for the next 4 1/2 weeks, but it should be great.

We're at our half way point, and we couldn't be more excited for the rest of our trip. We can only hope that Peru and Ecuador have better bus systems as they are more developed than Bolivia. We hope to not break down again tomorrow.

Hasta Sucre!
