Uyuni Salt Flats. - my first trip to uyuni salts flats. There were 9 of us. 3 from spain and 5 from Italy. All of them need greaters from Sucre. We did a three day tour from Uyuni through a brother's tour company in Uyuni. The first night we got there, we stayed in a little hostel in town. 6 dollars for the night. Went in to town and had a good llama steak at one of the best places in town. The next morning left at 9 or so, so we had a bit of a look around beforehand. We crammed into 2 Land Cruisers. I ended up with the back back seat somehow. The salt flats the first day and then we stayed in a salt hotel that night on the edge of the flats. Second day was all day driving and stopping at all the lakes, mountains and deserts. LOTS of flamingos and llamas. 5000m in a few places. Didn't seem to bad but then again I didn't do heaps of running around. Volcanoes are just EVERYWHERE. And I couldn't believe how lifeless everything was. Just no plants or birds or anything. Just the odd group of llamas wandering around. Reaslly amazing. The third day we did the same but we had to get up at 4:30am at -15 degrees. The coldest i've ever felt. More clothes just don't do anything. But at 8 we arrived at some thermal hot pools and that was the best 30 min ever i think. We went all the way down to the border with Bolivia, Argentina and Chile. Got back to Uyuni that night and travelled back to Sucre.

Lucky there wasn't any water! It was hard as rock

All of us

The island in the middle of the flats. The world's best cactus
i reckon

The salt hotel we stayed in. The tables, seats, walls, beds,
EVERYTHING was made of salt

The first lake we arrived at. We had lunch here
 right down on the water.

We had to scare them to get them to fly. 

These things are amazing. Just the was they move

Volcanoes, lake and 5000m at this point I think

The Red Lake

The second night. All of us huddled around the fire. We had one bottle of wine
 too. And the freaky guy at the back in the blue was the only random guy we
had with us. He came just to fill the car up. 

I did NOT want to get out ae. The air was -0 something

Old skool
