We headed out of the EAAF Nature Reserve, and crossed the border into San Pedro de Atacama, Chile on Saturday morning. After a few nights of roughing it in minus temperatures and sleeping bags, we were looking forward to some sun and comfort in the desert!
The day after the salt flats, we woke up and did our best from getting any salt on our stuff when getting ready and leaving (I failed…I had a nice amount of salt on pretty much everything I was wearing!).
After leaving the city on Thursday, our first stop was at a local tourist site where old locomotives had been left to rot just outside Uyuni. Our driver called it ‘The Locomotive Cemetery’!
