Cosmic Bowling

Thursday night we had an opportunity to hang out with some students in one of the English classes from the University. We went to "Cosmic Bowling." The first thing you should know about bowling in Bolivia is that it's not quite they same experience as bowling in the States. Here, you pay to bowl by the hour rather than per game, so you have to be prepared to cram as much fun into the allotted time as possible. The second thing you should know is that Bolivians don't do a lot bowling, and as such they have a somewhat unconventional delivery. Here you see the over-handed technique. Not necessarily effective, but very intimidating to the competition, nonetheless.

That in mind, I proceeded to bowl the single greatest game of bowling in my life. It was amazing. I felt like **insert name of famous bowler here**. And just in case none of you believe me, I've documented the event. Note the 6 strikes in a row at the beginning of the game. I danced a victory jig.


Oh yeah, we also got to meet some amazing students and make some solid friendships. That was a bonus. Here's a picture of Franklin. He does a mean moonwalk.

Afterwards we went out for some pizza. They told us jokes they learned in English. We would tell them jokes we knew, and then explain to them why they were funny.
