January 26th, Sucre Bolivia
It's been exactly 1 month since we've begun our travels! Seems long and short at the same time; long only because I'm absolutely dying for a cup of tea and a biscuit and some Indian food!
We're leaving for the town of Tupiza by the night bus tonight. Its only going to be the 3 of us as our Icelander has been diagnosed with bronchitis and has to get a daily shot of antibiotics for the next week. Sad to say goodbye, but traveling through South America, its likely we'll bump into each other again.
We decided to celebrate our last night in Sucre with - whatelse - a party. There's a bunch of new people in the hostel so we sat around drinking in the patio. One of the Brits in the hostel is a policeman back home, actually an undercover cop! At first it is so surprising since he looks like a proper party boy from the north with lots of tattoos, but then it makes sense how he fits in to his different identities. His stories were beyond cool, definitely cooler than watching TV!
After a while we decided to go to Florins and Bernie decided to dress up as a little red leprechaun exchanging shoes with the Brit so he could be dressed in all grey. The night only got crazier from there with lots of tequila. By 2 am I was ready for bed though the rest continued on. I was glad since we had to pack and check out early this morning.
Now we're all sitting around really sapped of energy. I'm really really going to miss this place, especially all the lovely people we've met. But as Bernie reminded me earlier, we have so much more to see and many new people to meet that I can't feel sad!
