Salar de Uyuni

Headed south from the train graveyard for the salt flat with 2 Brazilian couples and our driver/guide/chef for the next few days. Zoli, the driver, seemed a little confused when we told him his name was Hungarian and told us he was definitely 100% Bolivian :).
Even if it's supposed to be the rainy season we didn't have the luck to see it with water on the surface. It was still fantastic anyway cause you can take funny optical illusion pictures. Saw a tiny museum with big salt figures like llama and had our lunch in a salt house. Stopped by an island in the middle of the salt flat, where there were hundreds of massive cactuses, called Isla Incahuasi. Got to our salt hotel by the evening where we spent our first night. Here the floor, walls, tables and even the beds are made of salt!Read more
