Into the Desert

Isla Pescada, Salar

We arrived in San Pedro for a brief stay after our Salar tour.  The town, like Uyuni, has a frontier town feeling to it and is in the middle of nowhere.  The town itself seemed really expensive after coming down from Bolivia, it felt like that we were spending money!!

All the tours out of San Pedro were focussed on Lagunas, Geysers, Valley of the Moon and Salt Plains.  We felt that we had seen all of this over the last few days so decided to book a flight to Santiago just a few hours after arriving in San Pedro.  The internet was also terribly slow there which was quite frustrating as there was little else to do there while waiting for our flight on Tuesday evening.

I´ve attached some extra photos from Potosi and the Salar tour as i didn´t take any in San Pedro!!  You can see that these entries are getting briefer as I get lazier, how will I ever be able to go back to work!!!
