Here's the lovely view from the window...
Not too far of a drop...
Look out!
Oh my, I see quite a few other people wanted to go for a drive today as well...
Can you even imagine driving on this road?
I first saw these pictures on Elena's Blog.
They actually scared me!
If you know me outside of "blogging world" you'll know I'm a big chicken when it comes to driving up a mountain here in PA.
I cannot begin to think of driving on these roads down in Bolivia.
I sent a few of the pictures to the Colonel.
He had quite a laugh over them.
He knew IMMEDIATELY what my response would be to the question,
"Would you like to go for a drive?"
No thanks, I'll walk!
Leave me a comment and let me know if you would actually drive on these roads!

I can't go for a ride there. And I can't go for a walk there, either.

No...my husband and I were in Mexico a few years ago with one of his aunts and the road wasn't much better than that! His poor aunt was praying the entire way and I was too afraid to look out the window!! (We took that way because it was free---rather than paying a toll every so often---we took the toll road on the way back!!)

Well Sunshine, have to tell you
we would be walking together!!
When I looked at the first pic I
thought she can't be serious,
and I had a feeling it was from an
email cause I had seen it before,
Cracked me up tho, you are so funny.
I can not even begin to imagine driving on a road like that, course, I say that an actually we have driven on roads like that in
Germany and in the smokey mountains, course, they were paved and a lil bit wider, but still pretty darn scary.
One year we were on vacation up
in N.C. and drove over to Gatlinburg Tenn for the day, and when we came back late at night it was very foggy, that was a scary drive cause it some places there were no guardrails. We were driving pretty slow I have to say.
We were in our 20's when we were in Germany but they have these hairpin turns and we saw people driving these big ole trucks actually stop right on a turn like that and get out to check something, course, guess there is no place to pull over but think I would try and stop on a straight of way at least.
I must have blocked those experiences out!! lol
Yea, I am enjoying my magazine.
I only read 2 articles yesterday cause I figure I will savor it daily cause it only comes out once
a quarter.
I loved that quote too! Cause I love being a wife and homemaker,
and doing for my family and others and keeping and making a nice home. I definitely feel called to the home, and unfortunately I think the home has taken a real backseat these days. That is why
I love blogging so much cause their are so many ladies that have
the same heart for the home I do.
I just love that!!
Well Sweet Pea,
You have a great day.
Blessings, Nellie
P.S. That is good you gave Phil a good laugh with that road, I am sure he probably can use all the laughs he can get.
Take care!!

Oh - I don't think I could do it either. I remember when we arrived in Barbados for our honeymoon - my first experience outside of my "comfort zone" much less the country and what a culture shock....especially the driving! I truly did not think we would survive the taxi ride from the airport to the hotel. And, yes, we walked everywhere else while we were there. Oh my goodness.

Never in a million years!

When I went to Costa Rica we had to take a 4 hour bus ride to the beach and we took roads like that! It was nerve wracking but all I kept thinking of was 'how in the heck are those goats able to stand like that without tumbling over??' haha! The scenery was beautiful though...it's amazing what this earth can look like. Thanks for sharing!!
Sharon says
I about had a heart attack with the very first photo.
I would never ever drive on that road:( Just call me a big Chicken.
Debbie says
Just let me out so I can cling to a tree with my eyes closed and pray!
