The only way to visit the salt dessert is on a tour unless you are the proud owner of a car and a GPS ( compasses go crazy due to the magnetic field). 4 days in an altitude between 4000 and 5000m made us all struggle from restless sleep, headaches and even sickness. Good we had coca leafs with us. apparently the solution to everything.
We had two punctures in a day, well interesting seeing someone changing an inner tube of a 4x4 wheel within 20 min. We were mostly shocked by visiting a Pre-Inca cemetery (1250) with open tombs and mummified people. The place was not guarded nor fenced off and it isn't surprising that there have been grave robberies in the past.
We were looking forward to our last day to experiment with photographic illusion on the salt plans. To our disappointment, Petra's memory card got corrupted (1000 pics from the last months) and Phil's battery run out after a few shots. A sad day with a few tears.
