I did shoot a few more pictures as I was riding out to the La Paz airport though. She is so photogenic. I love the way these red brick houses cling to the hill.
They need to cling during "rain time" in case their sandy perch gets washed out from under them.
And a view down the highway. Farewell La Paz.
My flight wasn't until 5pm but I went to the airport early because I knew they had Internet.
I flew on Lan over to Santiago and they scheduled a stop in Iquique (say E-Key-Key) Chile on the way. We had to go through immigration there and get our stamps into the country.
The airline does that so that when we fly into Santiago we don't get charged the $135US entry fee which is only charged to persons entering Chile through Santiago by plane. Smart.
Then we went through customs when we got to Santiago. I had a bag of Palo Santo wood and the customs guy looked at them one piece at a time. He found one with several tiny holes and asked me what they were. Of course I didn't know. He kept that one piece. Hopefully, it didn't contain the bugs they are trying to keep out of the country. Now I can safely take the rest to Canada.
I got to my hostel about 11:30pm and was alone in my dorm for the first night. Sweet!
