We are going south to visit the cities and national parks south of the town of Salta. First we will head towards Cachi making a stop halfway to trek and explore. Then well move towards Cafayate again stopping at a halfway point to get http://www.travelblog.org/South-America/Argentina/Jujuy/Purmamarca/blog-308582.html Saturday was an even earlier start as we headed out to a hilltop Pachamama memorial and then to the HUGE salt flats. There is no road through the salt flats but the idea is to drive around on them wherever you wanthellipthis is where having rented a car and being on my own with a couple other people would have been FUN.
