Headed west near the Bolivia Border for 100KM on our salt flats route tour. I was a bit afraid it would be a duplicate of yesterday, but it was a totally different direction, and only 6 of us on the tour today. Our driver is also our tour guide today, yesterday we had a guide and a driver. Today we get seats in the front of the van, so a combination of car sick, altitude sickness from yesterday will hopefully be gone with front seat and someone elses prescription pills.

| Stopped at the french bakery to for baguette pickup for breakfast. Long line up of vans outside... |
 |
| Breakfast stop. No "real" bathrooms available today, we are roughing it. Again feel like we are on safari. Guide tells us there are better rocks for bathroom break later. |
 |
| Border crossing to Bolivia |
 |
| One fox chasing another around, maybe protecting territory? |
 |
| These volcanic pillars were amazing |

| Bathroom break if you wanted privacy! |
 |
| This "monk" formation is said to be protecting the baby flamingos that are born on the other side of the mountain it is facing |
 |
| Hot spring , you could touch it, but definitely too hot to go swimming in |
 |
| Our van for the day. This is the size of van we had for all our tours |
 |
| Lunch was included back in town. Luckily the one of the other couples with us spoke Spanish so was able to translate for us, no English in the restaurant. Andre ordered Chilean Salad with his chicken, he got tomatoes and red onions, that's it. I ordered mixed salad with mine, got everything on my salad, Andre was lucky and I gave him some of my stuff. |
