Wrong place, Right time
Wrong place, Right time

There was a long preparation time to be able to navigate through Bolivia on my own. I opted to go during the rainy season to experience it with less tourist crowds, to have water on the Salar de Uyuni and get clouds in the skies. All these premises were met, although sometimes I wondered how Bolivia must look like when the tourist crowds are there, as even in low season there were spots that were completely overrun.

Second, I chose not to take always the obvious path. It was my choice to take the less known roads. This took us sometimes to unique places and sometimes it put us in some predicament. One of these predicaments were accessing the Salar de Uyuni and getting stuck in mud and high water. I planned driving from Sajama N.P. to Salar de Uyuni in one day. It took us three days.

At the end we saw places and experienced moments that we might otherwise not have seen at all and probably very few tourist, if any, have ever seen.

Present image is such a place. We were at the wrong place, but we were definitively there at the right moment! My faithful companions were always following my car and this time they got the honor to be included in the frame. Jen and Bill, you never looked so good! ;-)
