They are our first kilometers
on the Bolivian road. A true happiness,
the coating is excellent and the few puddle
pools which strew our way are used as
feeding trough to thousands of butterflies,
provided that that lasts. It will be called
"the road with the butterflies".
|
|
And that did not last,
the coating changed. In fact of coating
we roll on sharp-edged stones which attack
our tires in a worrying way. For the photograph
we thus preferred to make 3 meters on
the railway.
|
|
|
Considering
certain bridges, it was better that we
make only a few meters on these rails.
|
|
After "the
road with the butterflies" here "the
road with the pigs". The size of
the puddle pools becomes worrying. Let
us hope that they do not increase. And
they increased so much that we do not
have of them photographs.

This pan
contains feet of cows which are put to
boil during one day. The juice filtered,
sweetened and mixed with milk gives once
cold a gelatine that Geoffroy dared to
taste.

This Bolivian
family accomodated us during a few days
after us to have fished out in a ford
where we had drowned the engine.

Small installation
in front of a splendid rainbow. We have
just led 8 hours of sharp on an execrable
road (5 passages of ford and a 20aine
of puddle pools worse than the fords).
There remain to us still 2 hours of road
in mud and under the rain, which we are
unaware of, from where our smile.

The roof is made of an
interlacing of half trunk palm tree hollow

Pay attention to your
buttocks Geoffroy they have the air aggressive...

Oh what a nice baby! Isn't

The pretty young lady drinks one subdued
cold as in Brazil in Bolivia and in the
north of Argentina. Whereas it is drunk
hot in the remainder of Argentina.
