Uyuni

Today has been a salty day...
After a short flight from La Paz to Uyuni, we first went to see a train cemetery. The idea was that Uyuni would be a big train intersection but it didn’t work out, so now there are lots of mostly rusted steam trains sitting in the middle of nowhere. My dad and I had lots of fun pretending we were in Red Dead Redemption 2! We pretended to rob people with out pretend guns an we pretended to drive the train! It was so much fun 🚂!

Next we drove to the salt flats and you could see all around you for miles without seeing other people. If there were cars far away they looked like hovercrafts because of the heat haze. At one point we stopped to take some silly photos which looked great because of the plain white background of the salt flats.

In the evening we went to watch the sunset at a place in the salt flats with 5 centimetres of water, and everything reflected off it as there was plain white underneath. It was like the world’s largest mirror!

Uyuni is supposed to have a great night sky but there were so many clouds we only saw 4 stars.Weiterlesen
