America Visa
Named after the film America Visa….Although,,,, we should be picking ours up tomorrow. The film is about a Bolivian National who applies for a US Visa……strange coincidence ?My mother will be pleased to know they didn’t even want to see…
Lost1
Oh how I hated this series but only after it ended. I wasted so much of my life watching it….the worse ending of all time.Anyhow, our receipt number for the $160usd each isn’t being accepted by the system CSC so…
Green Card
Today we went to pay for our USA B2 visa…..$160usd each. The process is long and made even worse by the “IT” systems in place. There are two systems to log on to and complete various “hoops” to apply for…
Death Road
There you have it. “Death Road” completed. To be honest its not scary at all. The road is wide enough and not busy. There’s worse tracks in Morocco….much worse and much more scary although not a beautiful. The start turn…
Falling Down1
The other day we stayed in Cochabamba, a medium sized town spread over a large area. We stayed in a cheap hostel in the centre as they had parking. It was only 100BOL for the hostel which is about £10.…

Dumb And Dumber
There we were driving round town in Tarija and a policeman jumps out and asks for the driving licence of the “conductor” (driver in English). He’s at Julies side of the car as always. I hand my licence to Julie…

500 Mph Storm
Our 500th day passed and we’re leaving Brasil for the final time. We’ve met some nice people here of the last few days. It must be the area. They’ve looked after us well and we’ve had a party. Thanks to…
Cutthroat Island
Julie was washing up….next think I hear screaming. Pools of blood. Quite a bit actully. She’s in shock (and now in bed) and has a big cut on her thumb. A pretty deep and long cut from a broken glass. Its…
The Living Daylights
Here we are in Foz do Iguacu Motorcyles Travellers Hostel. We are meant to be resting but we’ve been the see the falls (Argentina Side) and yes its better than Victoria Falls. The views are much better and its just…
Daylight
Sorry for not blogging but Matilda is in pieces as the headlights have packed up. The dash is off and so is the steering wheel. I’ve got them partially working but we can’t go anywhere until she’s fixed as no…
