Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid

Tomorrow is the 100th anniversary of their.... last bank robbery.

The narrow european style streets of Potosi with Cerro Rico in the background. Spain took enough silver out of Cerro Rico to build a bridge, made of silver, from Bolivia to Spain and back again.

While I would love to be out doing the mine tour and seeing where Butch and Sundance met their maker I´m all curled up and tuckered out with the flu. Guess it had to happen at some point and I´m glad it happened in a town with a nice hostel than at forteen thousand feet walking our way up a mountain. Anna and the gang are out viewing the mine on Cerro Rico or rich mountain, apparently Spain took quite a bit of silver out of Bolivia and tempted Butch and Sundance to do the same. We should be heading to La Paz tomorrow evening and then jumping into a taxi the following morning to drive to Rurrenbarque where we will depart on a hot and humid jungle tour. Croc´s, monkeys, and cappaybarra Oh My. More to come chicos, paz.
