Partying, partying, partying

LOCATION: BOLIVIA


Trying to recover from two parties last night, Im preparing my self to the upcoming SEDER feast at the El lobo resturant

Ha, what can I say...Last night was an amazing time and a very memorable for sure..
Before we went to the party, me, Sam, Holy and Marcelo went to meet with Anjel, a veteran mountain bike guide, at a local high key bar not far from our hostel...Anjel was in good mood (after a couple of beers) and invited us all to the popular Bolivian cubes game....Now, this game is notorious for the ability to get drunk after only several rounds of play...On the table there are one six-face cube, one leather case and most importantly, infinite number of beer bottles...One set of rules goes as follows: Each player rocks the cube in the leather case and throw the cube to see his fate: 1-the cubes pass to another player, 2- the player have to invite another player for a drink 3- the left player have to drink, 4- the right player must drink, 5 - the player that threw the cube have to drink and 6 is also a pass...
The first round was performed with out me as I was reluctant to participate (saying Im an Israeli...poor me for my excuses..) but after one round I joined happily...It was a real nasty game, and after 6 bottles of 1 liter beer we were all good...As a souvenir, I bought the case and cubes..
Returning half drunken to the Hostel, we found the rest of the international gang also drunken quite fairly...Two other Brits, two Swedish girls, one Ausi (name Luke, and we will return for him soon), Israeli guy name Gil and of course, all of us returning from the local bar...
W squeezed into two cabs and dropped at the Sopochachi district, near the Octopusi, a local Dance bar...partying was good, while in the background Bolivian and American Hip-Hop were vibrating the air...From all of us, Luke was the most drunken (200% drunk..), swaying to the music on two non-stable legs, bumping into passing locals, walls and polls, all smiling with his one brown, one green eyes...
One and half hour past, and we decided to move to another nice bar, Mugus, which is a tourist place that a lot of locals also find the international atmosphere appealing..and there was good vibes in the air, that´s for sure! The place was packed to the ceiling, and the floor rocked as hell! Good damn music (if a little jumpy from numerous nights of DJing) and the feeling was alive and wild, people dancing one on another, drinking, smiling and basically, having a damn good time...At approx 4:30 I saw Sam dragging Luke, still smiling and swaying, saying that we gotta leave coz Luke starts to mess with local girls and he was afraid for trouble...One look at Luke, and I immediately help Sam thaw this 100 kg drunken Ausi out of the joint into the cold air..It took something like 10 min only to get him into a waiting cab, and we went off back to our Hostel...
While Sam was getting into his bed, a spontaneous after party was going on in the small room of Luke, now a little more sober...an IPOD was pulled out with a couple of amplified speakers, and the music continued on for god know how long...At 5 I was cozing in my Sleeping bag, with ear plugs tucked real nicely oblivious of the party, only 5 meters away...
That´s it for now...gonna check what happens with the seder at the Lobo...
HAG SAMEAH LEKULAM!!!!
