Highlight: Salar de Uyuni
You know what they say... so I won't bother...
We have just finished a three day tour of the salt flats, lagoons, volcanoes and other natural wonders of Southern Bolivia and it was just stunning. Definitely some of the most incredible scenery we have come across over the last 11 months and there has been some stiff competition. Don't believe me then check out the rest of the photos!!
What the pictures don't tell: just how bloody cold it got, -8 degrees on the second night and 10 blankets and two hot water bottles were not enough to stop Deborah freezing her bits off. Also, the great fun we had with our group; an Aussie, three Swiss, our good selves and of course the Bolivian driver and cook (a bit miserable but -8 degrees every other day would make me pretty miserable too!!) - exploring Southern Bolivia, eating pretty respectable (for a tour) Bolivian food and playing silly games on the salt flats and sillier Swiss card games with only 32 cards, a bunch of farmers and a suspect queen or four.
All in all definitely a top 10 highlight!!
