The Salt Flat, especially “Fish Island”, an island located in the middle of the Salt Flats, has been one of the best excursions of the trip, so far. Much of its wonder was embodied in its serendipity. While the Salt Flats were spectacular in themselves, I didn't expected an Island populated with numerous green cactuses located in the middle of them. Also, I’ve no idea why they call it “Fish Island” there was not fish in sight.

Random Landscape Pictures, Bolivia
Red Lagoon
Turquoise Lagoon
White Lagoon
Desert Landscape
Within a 25 hour period we arrive on these landscapes. In comparison to the “Ultimate Asia” Trip in 2005, which of full of cultural and historical site this trip is packed full of outdoor landscapes and camping. We are only made it to Bolivia, so far, and have seen some of the most amazing landscapes (as pictured) I’ve seen in my life. Supposedly, the best is still yet to coming as we continue to travel south to Patagonia, in southern South America.

Carnage in LaPaz, Boliva
I'm getting to old for this!! Sufficiently drunk, I left the bar early and went to bed. After the bar closed, the party came back to my hotel room.
Llama Fetuses - La Paz, Bolivia
I'm not sure what purpose these llama fetuses serve, but there were a lot of them hanging in shops of the local witch doctors market.
