I found out today that tomorrow I have to fly to Cochabamba. Aparently, the government recently changed their regulations to aquire a visa, particularly for Americans. They want a bunch of records that they do not usually ask for. I have been advised to go to Cochabamba and take care of the whole ordeal there instead of trying to do it in La Paz. Its supposed to be easier this way.
On a brigher note, this weekend was a lot of fun. I went and hung out with the Jethro group (college-age small group). We played wally ball and afterward went to someones house and I taught them how to play "gran poto" which is the Spanish version of the English game with the same name only translated. It was a big hit. We played with eleven people for over an hour.
Today was fun too. I went with Ramiro into el centro and had a Bible study with some shoe-shiners. I didnt understand 3/4 of it, but it was still good. Me and Ramiro played chess afterwards and he slaughtered me. The only problem with the day was that I hadnt the chance to eat lunch and I was really really hungary. So was Ramiro. He took me to a fried chicken place and I asked him several times if it was okay for me to eat there. He reasured me and told me it was absolutely a fine place to eat with nothing to worry about (check below posts for reasons of my precaution). We had fried chicken and french fries and it tasted great. Im feeling a little off right now.
