Valey of the Moon

La Paz 27th Jan
Today I went to the "Vally of the moon", which is a stangely erroded "badlands" area to the south of La Paz. This was basicly very odd big columns and holes and was quite dangerous to walk on as it just crumbled away.
What was really striking was how rich the people on this side of town are.
The houses would put Kiliney and Dalkey to shame.
All well protected behind huge walls.
This is quite a contrast to how poor some people are here.
In the city people leave their rubbish bags on corners and the really poor people go through the rubbish picking out bits of food. Keep in mind food it very cheap here.
Here is an idea of what you can get for your Boliviano.

1 Bolivian Boliviano = 0.10269 euro
1 euro = 9.73795 Bolivian Boliviano (BOB)


1B 5 Bannanas
1B or 5 Bread rolls
1B or a saltina (like an empanada or cornish pastry with cheese or chicken or egg)
1.5 - 2B Hot dog from a street vendor
2 - 3B Burger and some chips from street vendor
5 - 7B 4 course lunch menu: salad, soup with bread, main course, desert.
