Salar de Uyuni tour

So here you have it all in detail.

First of all, I had the best group of people I could get I think. One guy from England, one girl from Switzerland, a couple from Canada and one guy from the States but living in Canada.

We started off going to a cementary for trains from 1890, it was cool an we felt like children on a playground climbing on all the broken and rusty trains.

After that we went to the salt flats, which was incredible. Salt wherever you looked. We went to this small village made in salt where you could buy things made in salt. Salt salt salt.

Out on the salt flats we went to this island called Isla de Pescada, Fish island. It looked like a fish from distance with the reflections in the salt. Anyways, the island could also have been calles cactus island. So many cactuses! The talles one were about 12 m and 3 cm tell and about 1200 years old. The island used to have inka people living on it, so we could see some caves and things where they used to live. Cool.

Then we were off to the hotel we were suppose to stay in for the night. All in a sudden it started to rain, heavy. Everything turned white and we had to stop for a while. We were lost. So we took up all of our cookies and started to eat. But in a while we could go on.

So we stayed in a salt hotel, with salt beds and yeah.. it was cool.

Day two we woke up at 6 am. It had been raining all night long and it was soo cold, no kidding. The whols day was fun living hell, as you can say. We went to see some colored lakes and we saw flamengos. We also had the fortune to see some Lamas mating, even though the intercourse wasn't that much to see I have to admit.

Then we went to see "the Stone Tree". Basically a stone looking like a tree. But there was a lot of cliffs which we, once again, used like a playground.

I felt sick the whole day. And when we got to the second, very basic hotel, I went to sleep for two hours. When I woke up I joined the guys playing the game "Ass hole" and then I started to feel really bad. So I went and threw up, twice. So I didn't have that much for dinnner and I went to bed really early. On me I had two pair of pants, two t-shirts and a poncho and two pair of socks. On top of that, four blankets.

I told you it was cold.

Day tree we woke up at 4 am. Yes. Then we drove to some hot springs were we had breakfast. After eating we went into the hot springs and it was soo nice. Fortunately is was to become a beautiful day, so when the sun came up it wasn't that cold anymore. And I felt way better than the other day.

After that we went through Salvador Dali's dessert. We took some cool Dali pictures of melting clocks and elephants. Of course using what we had, our bodies. But I was really cool, almost a replica of his art. Or maybe I should say it's the other way around.

Then we drove to "the Green Lake" and then to the border to drop off one guy who was going to Chile. Then we drove about eight hours to get back to Uyuni.


Man, we've been sitting in a car almost the whole tour, but I have had soo much fun, and the scenary... just wow. There's no words that can ever make my experience any justice. And there's no pictures that can ever show you exactly what I've been seeing. All I can say is that it's totally worth going to Bolivia!
