I MADE IT ACROSS! I certainly won't be missing the dusty dirt roads. But you have to take the good with the bad. If there were superhighways everywhere the natural beauty would certainly not be as pristine. The fascinating and distinctive indigenous groups, each with their unique garb and crafts, would certainly be more homogenized. Ok, so we like the dirt roads...but we could do without some of the bumps.

I heard that Tiger was in a slump... but reduced to hawking smokes in South America?

Pedestrians have no rights in Bolivia. No such thing as a crossWALK. Kids must  learn to RUN!
