Our second day in the Salar de Uyuni was very different to the first, but just as beautiful. Instead of salt flats we were driving over beautiful desert, with blue skies and a beautiful day time moon watching us the whole time.A hot breakfast of eggs , toast and coffee somewhat compensated for the bitter-cold six a.m. rise. Then we were off to the vastness. Although seemingly lifeless, there were strange and hearty shrubs growing everwhere we looked, birds occasionally dotting the sky and small, fat, furry mice scampering between the green bits of an otherwise golden brown landscape.
We saw steaming volcanoes and ancient rock formations in the shape of trees before reaching the Red Lake to see some flamingos before they take off for the winter. It was one of those amazing days where I just sat back in our 4X4 gazing out the window in awe of the beauty of our world. And of course there was a lovely sunset to finish the day, and our wonderful cook, Nora, even cracked out a bottle of red wine for with our Spaghetti Bolognese dinner.
