What a fantastic way to spend a Sunday. September 1st marked the Pedestrian Day, for the City of La Paz.
Families and their children, bikes, tricycles, scooters, skates took over the streets. No cars – and lots of healthy and peaceful fun! ♥ Below here, images from our [otherwise very busy on Sundays!] neighborhood:
LA PAZ SE PARALIZA DOMINGO PARA CELEBRAR EL DÍA DEL PEATÓN

Absolutely! It was such a relaxing day! No cars whatsoever! It was very empowering, actually! The ability to being able to walk up and down streets, strolling kids, with no fear! Priceless…
