Uyuni

We had breakfast in the hotel before getting picked up around 8.30am to head to our next destination, Uyuni.
We arrived around 1pm and went to a vegetarian restaurant for a yummy salad and toasted sandwich.
There was a gym in the hotel so Daniel went back for a quick workout whilst Gab went to the shops with some of the girls.
We were then picked up at 3pm for our salt flats experience. We put on gum boots and headed into the Uyuni Salt Flats - a flat barren area which used to be a lake that has since dried and left a salt deposit up to 460m in areas. It is a truly incredible sight! This area of the salt flats is wet which meant everything looked incredible in the reflection in the water.
We started with some reflection photos in the water with some props provided by the tour operator who is a professional photographer. After some photos in a boat, Daniel used the gold wings while Gab used an umbrella and did the Chicago pose on a chair (as directed by the photographer!)
We then had some wine and snacks on the salt flats followed by birthday cake for Marielle, one of the other girls on our tour.
Once the sun set, we tried out some light painting - a technique where you use long exposure on a professional camera to capture different images as we drew them with glow sticks and lights. Daniel drew a bridge and then we had love hearts lights drawn around us.
We then finished the light painting by drawing happy birthday for Marielle before heading back into town. It was quite chilly and our feet were cold so it was a relief to be back in the car.
We had pre-ordered pizzas which we picked up on our way back and ate before heading to bed.
