Uyuni - La Paz 27. Feb. - 6. Maerz 2007

Back in Uyuni we looked in the Internet for a payable flight home. Also Tobias flies home, because the time became simply too limited over the south winter ago to fire country to come. A decision us easily do not please is. From Uyuni we took the runway landschaftlich more beautifully after Potosi, which is to be driven better, are however the distance after, and/or from Challapata. On Asfalt it went two days back to La Paz. We that the eigendliche city is in an enormous hole and we had not seen it on away after Uyuni at all, saw only the poor suburbs only now. Steeply the roads led into the city down. Above, on 4100m, where air is thinner lives arms and down on 3300m lives realms. Ever we saw poor and richly so close together and the difference between the upper and to the lower part of town could more largely not not be. We fell ourselves into the Gewuehl of the bulk city around a suitable parking area for our motorcycles to find, because we want to return in the October of this yearly again to South America around our journey to fire country to continue. We have to settle 10 days in La Paz time around everything, before it with the airplane to 12. March back to Europe goes. This time pad should be enough eigendlich. We already booked and paid our flight in Uyuni. We found a place with a Hondahaendler, with which we can park the motorcycles until Octobers. Now we had only to the tariff, since the Motos possessed a residence permit only for 30 days. In addition we had into the upper city into the proximity of the airport. There we explained our situation and got also equivalent completely without problems the necessary papers issued. On the way back into the lower part of town we became and/or Let us Inge-borrow first time on our journey bestohlen. However ¨nur unimportant Sachen¨weg came: Passport, credit card, driving licence, permission Everything went very fast. We let the map five minutes later close and our next way led us to the Swedish consulate around the procurement of a new passport into the ways to lead. It was Friday afternoon and before Monday runs first times nothing. Thus we settled once motorcycle park history and stood on Monday mornings at 9 o'clock with the schwedeischen message, which consists only of a tiny office. Photos and the request form must be sent after Buenos Aires to the Swedish message, where the passport is then issued and again must be sent back. The whole procedure takes at least 10 days. That is us to for a long time, because in only 7 days our airplane goes. With DHL to send faster, costs stop goes more. Drive to OK ONE, we to DHL and deliver the cover. We want to also pay equal return, since we probably accept that the people do not want to pay that in Buenos Aires for us, what however out of bureaucratic reasons do not go, because the package is to then be longer on the way. After further telephone calls mi Argentina we found a solution then nevertheless and can now only hope that the passport arrives in time and we do not have to shift the flight, which will cost again a heap money. Middle while know each other we already completely well out in the city, since we were as good already in all, or as in all parts. Yes, boring never becomes us….
