If you like bicycle track racing, there is a velodrome on south side of town, amongst the various sports fields on Ave de los Deportistas

I would have never guessed that! If my repair gets delayed I'll check it out.

I also learned that La Paz has a basketball team (Mantarrayas) that plays in an arena behind the fútbol stadium and a baseball team (Delfines) that play in a stadium next to the fútbol stadium.

I am bummed my van is not well, but on the bright side I have learned a ton about La Paz being unexpectedly "stranded" hear for a while. The fútbol match last night and the following after party in the parking lot was a great time!

Thanks for visiting him! It was so nice of you.

No matter what, i would go to Cabo Pulmo and snorkel after the van is fixed. It is such a wonderful place.

I just realized that Barbara from Canada lives in La Paz and would probably accompany you on your lunches etc if you want company?

Thanks Blanca. I've been to Cabo Pulmo a couple times and agree the snorkeling is fantastic. I had a great time out at Isla Espiritu Santo yesterday although the water is a bit frigid now.

Once the van's spa treatment is complete I'll probably start a slow wander north.

I was yelled at by both a sea lion and a mountain yesterday!

Hola Blanca. Can you help me find you through a different way than the coordinates? We have a trip north next month and would love to come visit. Also, thanks to all for all the great information in this thread.
