biking, horsing and wedding.

Last time we undated this we were about to adventure off horseriding and cyling in Sucre. Both of thought Sucre was fantastic, Maura because of the gorgeous buildings me because you could buy plates of chips, sausage, beef and gravy for every meal!

The horseriding was fun although Maura had a certain amount of trouble steering Artoro away from the cliff edges. My horse Santana just spent the time biting everything in his path. It ended in a village drinking Chicha a local corn ber fermented with spit! with a 90 year old lady. Probably the reason we were reaching for the Pepto Bismol for the next week. The biking was also fun starting with two broken bikes in the first 100 metres but ending in a romantic canon swim and an opportunity for a mud bath.

We then headed off to Santa Cruz, not the greatest place on the planet with an enormous spectrum of rich and poor, the rich been drug dealers the poor being drug takers. We did however pay one dollar and go to the Zoo which actually turned out to be a great laugh.

Back in the UK we had a fantastic time meeting up with everyone on Thursday, then it was wedding madness which was brilliant fun. Friday a family dinner then the wedding itself. All very stressful for everyone except us who stayed in a local pub and got hammered everynight!
