La Paz, Bolivia
On December 26, 2008 1:55 p.m.
24 at night, I went out to eat on the Prado Boulevard "the Picana Navidad ", the typical dish served in restaurants only on Christmas Eve.
Accompanied by my friend Fernando, a Bolivian, a professional interpreter who has spent the majority of his career in England, Australia and South Africa, who was alone for Christmas, I shared this meal for Christmas Eve.
Towards 21 hours, there were many families who were walking on the Prado, the main boulevard that runs through La Paz, divided by a wide promenade between channels.
tree decorated by throngs of paper on which the children of the world have written wishes for Bolivian children.
We dance salsa with our friends John and Lila, she is Irish and his New Zealander! They travel in South America while volunteering.
I took a picture, the block across the street in front of me, Christmas Eve, to show you how the evening, coming out on my balcony, I can see inside of each of its apartments. In the top window, I look at length that evening a small boy and a girl about 7 years performed traditional dances of Bolivia. They were adorable!
Finally, even if this year Santa Claus did not go through with me, and I did not attend any meeting of "unpacking gifts," I had a wonderful Christmas in good company!
