The ever-developing La Paz cable-car system never ceases to enthral us. This
new blue line takes you literally to the centre of town (think Buchanan Street
subway station, but for cable-cars). |

The following images are taken from a walk up the Muela del Diablo, the
spectacular rock formation you can see on the right-hand side here.
Disclaimer no.1: this is not my photo. |

| Disclaimer no.2: we drove most of the way in a mighty Lada. |

Sam's ubiquitous goldfish crackers. They taste even better
at altitude. |

| La Paz Community Church. |
 |
One of LPCC's attendees is our old friend Dave McColl, now working as
the Samaritan's Purse chief in Bolivia. Mark called this a Scottish sandwich,
so I suppose that makes him a lorne sausage. |

| The Hunts' dog, Chumita, more than made up for Napoleon's absence in Sam's eyes. |

Some footage from our sound-check:
And here's our playlist. All covers, of course! The U2 and Ben E. King numbers were 'mashed-up'. Craig sang lead on Change The World, These Days and I'm On My Way, which doubled both as our encore and as an excuse to change into a 1978 Scotland shirt.
There are plenty more photos and videos from the concert. Send us an email if you'd like to see more.
Prayer Points
- Give thanks for a great time in La Paz, both at the Latin Link retreat and with friends old and new.
- Give thanks for a terrific gig on Tuesday and the opportunity to bless the Novo rehabilitation programme in this way.
- Pray for Sam at school; his behaviour has taken a bit of a nosedive recently.
- Pray for Bolivia as the country goes to the polls for the presidential elections on the 20th.
- Pray for Joe Stoneham, a new Latin Link worker who will be staying with us for a few days next week.
- Pray for the first meeting of Craig's Langham escuelita, on the 23rd.
- Pray for the launch of the church's new midweek meeting, next Thursday (17th).

¡Que Dios les bendiga!
Craig, Amanda & Sam
