Shock absorber

Overloaded

On our way to the mines in the southern part of Potosi our car broke down - the same car with which I travelled through Latin America last winter. This time the problems were caused by the shock absorbers. Probably the car was overloaded.
Now we are in Uyuni, waiting for new shock absorbers.
Yesterday we travelled by taxi to a village 3,5 hours from Uyuni where family of my godson lives.
We ate llama and I bought some gold. (The family of my godson is into mining.)
Also I cut my godson´s hair.
Now we are back in Uyuni, waiting for shock absorbers.
I´m still sharing a room with the volunteer who resembles Jesus Christ.
