O final

Agora já escrevo da cadeira da minha sala de estar, de volta em Belo Horizonte. Mas acho que a essa altura isso não deve ser novidade pra ninguém, né?

Então tá, vamos ao resumo dos últimos dias de viagem que provavelmente quebraram o recorde, tanto em intensidade quanto em excentricidade. Em ordem cronológica, minhas impressões:

1) Sabem aquela música que fala que a gente pode mudar de idéia e falar o contrário todo hora? Pois então, o lago Titicaca realmente é lindo (do lado da Bolívia, pelo menos). O passeio na Ilha do Sol me surpreendeu positivamente e foi muito louco mesmo com toda a má vontade que eu tava antes de ir, já esperando que ia ser bem banal. A vista das encostas íngremes cortadas em curvas de nível e cobertas da típica vegetação amarelada em contraste com o azul do lago e o branco das montanhas nevadas da Cordilheira Real lá atrás é incrível. Fiquei até com dó que, por motivos logísticos, tive que ficar pouco tempo e não pude dormir lá, mas a vida é feita de escolhas e é isso aí.

2) Bem corridamente, fui pra La Paz e rodei como um louco as ruas dessa capital. Adorei. O ar de cidade grande misturado com a originalidade da vida dos índios que moram lá criam uma atmosfera muito legal. Por exemplo, você caminha dois quarteirões da avenida principal - cheia de executivos de terno e prédios de vidro - e chega no mercado de feitiçaria, onde as índias vendem cestas cheias de fetos de lhama, incenso anti-macumba e ervas pra dor-de-barriga.

3) Agora sim posso afirmar que fiz a coisa mais legal da minha vida. Carreguei mochila pesada, usei grampão no pé, casaco de neve e picareta de gelo, dormi num refúgio na base da galeira, acordei às 1 da manhã, vomitei biscoito de goiaba, caminhei por dois dias e masquei muita coca pra conseguir subir o Huayna Potosi, um pico que fica nos arredores de La Paz e que tem 6088 metros de altitude. A subida foi osso, mas descer foi mais difícil pelo alto tempo pelo qual já estava exposto à ainda mais alta altitude: cheguei no refúgio completamente grogue, rindo sem parar, respirando de boca aberta e sem conseguir formular uma frase completa nem em inglês ou espanhol. Uhu!

4) Mas a viagem de volta conseguiu ser ainda mais épica. Peguei um vôo de La Paz pra Santa Cruz porque só tinha dinheiro pra pagar por esse trecho. Dormi lá e fiquei um dia inteiro esperando pelo ônibus pra fronteira que só sairia cinco da tarde - andei pela cidade inteira e vi o novo filme do Batman no cinema (muito bom, por sinal). O ônibus acabou saindo só às sete, e a viagem que era pra demorar 15 horas demorou 38. Sim sim, 38! Motivos: atolamento, teto quebrado, batida lateral, eixo quebrado, motorista cansado e uma possível câmera escondida do Serginho Mallandro que eu não vi, mas tenho convicção quase inabalável que deveria existir tendo em vista a comicidade forçada e sutil presente durante toda essa batalha. Da fronteira, já emendei o ônibus de Corumbá pra Campo Grande e de lá pra BH. Cheguei torto, mas feliz.


E, assim, a viagem acabou (mas não o blog).

Precisamos falar sobre essa escalada no gelo, você sabe que essas subidas muito me interessam.

Em setembro estou planejando subir o Monte Whitney, a montanha mais alta dos EUA contíguo (sem Alaska). Barra pesada!!!!!

Irada sua viagem, muita coisa pra contar.

Ow, eu nem gostei da Isla del Sol... me senti explorada pelos moradores: 5 bolivianos pra entrar no lado sul, 10 pro lado norte, passagem de ida 10, mas a de volta custa 20. "Por que?", perguntei pro cara na bilheteria. "Porque menos turista volta", respondeu ele com a cara mais lavada do universo.
Af, sou muito mais Copacabana.. muito me diverti por lá.

Quanto à viagem de 38 horas: aaaaaaah! desespero! mas enfim, você chegou em casa no final, então tá tudo bem...

Another issue that you must stay on top of is price fluctuations from the bookmaker. The prices for placing bets do not just change with different bookies but even with the same. You cannot take it for granted that the prices that are quoted in print like the Racing Post will be valid at the time of the event. With sports betting things can change very rapidly so be sure that the price will be honored before placing your bet otherwise this can seriously affect the outcome of your arbitrage sports betting.

Any one who bets on sports for profit will want to make sure they are getting the best sports betting odds but it doesn’t matter what you are betting on, the fact of the matter is that the house is going to be sure to come out on top. They don’t build those billion dollar casinos with winner’s money! The best odds are generally a little better and a sports bettor will likely see a return of eight to ten dollars for every hundred dollars he or she bets over a long term period.

For quite some time the United States House of Representatives has been trying to pass a bill that will make it much more difficult for people to get away with breaking the online gambling laws. Not to mention stricter penalties for those who are caught.

From the above, therefore, you can see that finding a good Selection System and sticking to it is the only way to go if you are truly serious about making money at sports betting.

8.) Some bingo game sites offer various incentives for the players. Some offer free cash of around twenty to two hundred percent of your initial deposit money and bonuses on your deposit. Hence, you can play more games at such game sites thereby increasing your winning chances. [url=http://www.bingokisses.com]play free bingo online[/url] Another bingo system functions through the positions in the bingo card. Every bingo card has 24 numbers with a free spot in the middle. All 24 numbers have strategic positions in the bingo card while the remaining numbers occupy dead positions or squares. Probability of winning combinations occupying strategic positions is high. The dead squares come into force only in bingo combinations occurring in horizontal or vertical positions. [url=http://www.bingokisses.com]free bingo cash[/url] With so many different casino and gaming sites on the Internet, it is difficult to know which ones are legitimate and which ones are not. After all, if you want to join the gaming community, you have to decide whether you want to play for money or for fun and prizes. If the former, it is more pertinent to find out what sites are legitimate since you do not want to invest cash into something that is not going to give you a return on your investment.

Your aim would be to cover the prescribed pattern with the bingo letters, by coordinating the letters and numbers called. The patterns can be anything like, u shape, t shape, etc, though it usually is horizontal or vertical. As soon as you get the pattern, you should shout bingo and you get the prize. In case there are others who shouted at the same time as you, the prize will be shared among all winners.

Some of these newer super-bright LED light products will light up on voltages ranging from 10 volts DC to 30 volts
DC, while others will run on as little as 8 volts.

There health benefits outnumber their disadvantages, if any.
The much talked about drawback, the lack of evenly distributed light in LED lamps
too has been now satisfactorily sorted out by
Sharp with their proprietary coating technique of the glass enclosure.
