We did a couple of offroad styles for the camera up in the dry Andes between the Altiplano and the Amazon region. The photos are taken at 4500 meters, the temperature on the west side was considerably colder that the Cochabamba region (high 20's early 30's) at 2600 meters.
Sam C and Brian decided that the only green thing in this barren landscape should be made fun of. So they proceeded to mock the green moss that had been quitley growing for centuries - makeing obscene excretory jestures - the moss just sat there and took it and the boys wandered off like bored stray dogs after a good barking and chasing of the proverbial motorcyclist.
I quietly relevied myself - but them strays were back for more...
We have hit the Jackpot today in Cochabamba, Jorge, the owner of the 5 star Hotel Cochabamba saw us and asked if we wanted to stay for a discount rate (he has a BMW F650). We paid $65 US per double and we are living it up well we can. We had a buffet lunch, a swim, a spa and the boys had a beer or two while I blog with a killer head cold. I think the lads had togs on in the spa.. they look quitehappy though - gone "tropo" i think.
Brian's "pig" looks like it may need the front sprocket replaced before we get to the desert. We are going to try and source that tommorow as there is a BMW dealer in town. Fingers crossed as we want to try and make a day trip to the Jungle tomorrow. Jorge will ride with us on his F650.
