August 26, 2013 – Alain Relaxes With Great Views of Sajama From the Village

Hello this is Osvaldo calling from the Sajama village. We just arrived a few minutes ago. Today the weather was good, a little windy here but even still the sky is clear. On the way to Sajama from La Paz we visited the Capilla Sixtina de Curahuara de Carangas which is an old church here and has great paintings among other things. After that we continued the drive to Sajama. Alain is just here at his hotel in the village and he is just getting settled and soon we will go eat dinner. Everything has been okay and we will keep you updated. Bye!
