On the way to the Bolivian Pampas

If you ever hear Mart saying that he does not like kids, well, there is a proof against it.
It is quite usual to drink freshly squeezed juice from plastic bags :D Our super nice group on the way to the Pampas.

La Paz is just an incredible place where tradition, rituals and magic braids with a capitalistic society.

La Paz and its Wonders

Just outside the city one can get lost in the "moon like valley". Tihuanaco, the ancestors of the Incas and Aymara cultures, was one of the most amazing cultures that lived on the southern continent. Cultivators of more than 400 types of potatoes, performers of brain surgeons and readers of stars, Tihuanaco built big pyramids and carved in stones of more than 20 tones.

The end of one of the roasds. We arrived in Salar de Uyuni.

These four pics really represent Bolivia seen by many travelers. A picture next to the Evo Morales president, of whom Bolivians seem to be very proud.
The nice sunrise on the Salar de Uyuni.
Salar de Uyuni - a great place to play with your imagination.
A just a beautiful cactus flower.

Dali´s Desert and Laguna Colorada

These surroundings really made us feel part of Dali´s paintings... In fact, Dali got inspired from this very desert.

Jeep tour from Tupiza to Uyuni

And here we start another road, another country, another almost virgin nature - Bolivia.
It is just a spectacular feeling seeing all these animals and birds about which you´ve been reading since a kind.

Photos from the Uyuni tour 4

The coolest thing: playing football in the evening against the villagers - on 4100m.
And meeting the lovely children.
And seeing flamingos fly right over you...
