Bolivia - Uyuni: Part 2


There were hundreds of flamingos on each lagoon. Beautiful creatures.



This shot took a lot of effort. It was really difficult to get a decent picture of the flamingos with our camara.



The cooks fed is with the full works wherever we were and whatever the weather. It was great. I think corned beef fried in egg was the wierdest thing we ate.




The Stone Tree in the desert.





Our tour group for the second part at our second nights accomodation. It was extremely cold and possibly the worst night's sleep we had as we were sharing the room with another 3 people - 1 of which set the alarm for 3.30am. Nice.





We got up at 4am to see this sunrise. It was impressive, but I don't think I have ever felt so cold. The temperatures were subzero and it was thermals all the way.






Natural geysers in the desert.




With frost on the ground we somehow managed to strip off and climb into the glorious natural hotsprings.



It was the first time we had been warm for days. Getting out was a different story. Martin's shorts froze instead of dried!!
