The street kids sleep in places like this, this is a canal where there are 2 groups of kids in 2 different tunnels. When it rains, the canal fills up so they go and find shelter elsewhere, but they always come back here afterwards.

These are some of the street kids that live in the tunnel on the previous photo.....

One afternoon we went with a group of Americans to help a very very poor family build a second hut on the bit of land they have quite far out of the city ... Before 8 of them lived in a 2*2 m hut ...4 adults and 4 children ...
A fifth child is at the boys center now, the stepfather used to be violent with him.
So we built another hut and they have moved in now...

This is just after the graduation evening at an english speaking church, the graduation was for 7 young people ( from 19 to 25) that have just finished their 'year for God'. On the photo there is Dan, an english boy. All of them are great and I'll definitely be keeping contact with them...there all leaving one by one now, to go back to their countries ...

In Bolivia, you don't pass your test, you buy your license, so driving is quite dangerous as people do what they want... At this junction people blow their horns and just zoom through .... Quite funny actually, as most of the parts of the city people don't drive fast, or can't drive fast, so it's just chaos ....
