The Fishers in La Paz, Bolivia

We attended the meeting this morning for US citizens. They did not give too much new information. They did indicate that the explusion of the ambassador is serious in that this has not happened anywhere else in the world in the last 20 or so years. The other issue is that the US congress will vote soon to decide whether or not to continue to trade relations with Bolivia. This decision would also affect the many aid and anti-drug projects that the US funds here.

The situation within Bolivia may be getting better. The opposition governors met with the Vice President of the country into the early hours of the morning. They are supposed to sign an agreement tonight to resolve some of their issues.

Currently, our area remains peaceful and we hope to resume classes at school tomorrow.
