Salt n Pepa

---

After a horrendous drive along what felt like mostly rocks, we arrived in Uyuni early evening. We've really started to reach altitude now, from memory the town is 3,600 m above sea level, though luckily I've not been overly affected by it.

Bolivians seem to love their Italian food as again that's pretty much all we could find to eat. Which is fine, just a bit boring, so we spiced dinner up with more drinking games (NB the Australian girl on the trip doesn't seem to know who anyone is when playing drink while you think).

Whilst in Uyuni, we took a trip out to the largest and highest salt flats in the world. All around was just white, it was really quite bizarre. And because it's so flat we took loads of kerazy photos where the perspective is distorted (will upload shortly). To be honest, I'm not sure how we managed to spend a whole day in an area where there is pretty much nothing, but we did. And I got sunburn again.

You'd think someone would be smart and open a chip shop there.
