The last day of the tour was nice, but certainly not the highlight. We were up at the shockingly cold hour of 04:30 and spent much of the day driving to cover the great distance back to Uyuni. The early rise was well worth it to see the sun come up and get photos of beautiful mountains reflected on perfectly still lakes.
After several hours bundled up in the 4X4 with our sleeping bags wrapped around us we arrived at some hot springs for a well-needed soak and some breakfast. We also stopped to see some bubbling, sulphur-stinking geysers, but after that it was pretty much directly back to Uyuni with an occasional stop for “pee pee naturale” as our driver politely called it. I got back to town fully satisfied and awesomely impressed with the tour, grabbed my rucksack and jumped on an overnight bus for the next destination.

It drops below twenty degrees at night in the Salar, so we awoke to iced-over windows in our hostel.
BUndled up in the 4X4; the girls snooze.
Bubbling geysers in the desert.
The geysers steaming in the cold morning light.
Friends along the way.
