23rd/24th May Uyuni Salt Pans

Up and off to Uyuni, staying in a hotel next door to an army base (!), ready for our visit to the the largest Salt Pan in the world, a vast area of....erm...well....salt, created by the evaporation of some pretty huge lakes by volcanic shenanigans.
So that's next door to the army base, you say




Francois wanted to see if it tasted of salt.....it did




Me and Jeanne loving the views




Piles of salt ready for taking away for use








Me! Popping out of a wine bottle




My favourite of the mucking about shots - Lisa tells off Tony and Geoff




Trying to get us all to jump at the same time is apparently like herding cats




Some people are SO competitive when it comes to pics




Moi, Anthony (nb - clothed) and Mikkel




Me and Mikkel




Just me and lots of salt




The visit involved lunch at Cactus Island, a visit to a train graveyard and frolicking about taking photos on the strange expanse of salt. A great day out.












Kirsten, Lisa and me
