DEATH ROAD

Wow! Sometimes taking a break from work or school is a tremendous invigorating experience if you choose to follow my niece’s example – Kudos Telma!

In Bolivia - South America in the department of La Paz there is an awesome road that takes you from the heights of the Andes to the jungles of the “Yungas” The road is called “DEATH ROAD” or “El Camino de la Muerte” – no kidding.

The road is used by cyclists throughout the world to test their vim. The ultimate thrill ride!
Check this out – here is my niece’s team going from the heights of La Paz (~13,000 feet) to the jungle, all on a one lane road……… amazing!
