La Paz, Bolivia

 La Paz, Bolivia, at 4,000 meters above sea level, is the highest capital in the world.

The summers are comfortable hot, and the winters very mild.

Bolivia is a poor country financially, but rich in culture and people. Bolivia was invaded by the Spaniard back in the days, that's how the Spanish language became the main language. Their are still the native Indians here as well, The 2 main Indian languages 'Ketchua" and "Aymara". I can speak a tiny bit of Aymara too,.

La Paz, sits like a bowl in the Andes, surrounded by the Mountains, and the Altiplano. Both picture show the famous Mountain "Illimani".The nature is breathtaking

The "Home of the Blues"

Back in the days a major port on the Mississippi River.

St. Louis has a nice downtown, with lots of restaurants and bars, it reminds me of so many big cities in the US. The tourist areas are wonderful, but don't wander too far away. St. Louis has some rough neighbor hoods, in fact it makes the top list of the most dangerous cities :(.

Getting away from the city you will get the feel of the Midwest.
Flat lands, cornfields, no mountains, very calming.

Miami Beach, Florida

South Beach, Miami,  Calle Ocho,

Miami Beach, I think one of the nicest beaches, the water is always perfect.

If you visit the Miami area and you love animals, check out Jungle Island. http://www.jungleisland.com/
