4WD Adventure to Uyuni - Siloli Desert

We survived the night in the refuge.  It really wasn't that bad. In fact, it was a lovely experience because we checked in around 5 pm and we had no internet, phones, or other distractions and lots if time to kill before bedtime. It was nice getting to know our fellow travelers. 

Day two was a drive through the Siloli desert. Still no roads. It was open space. Here are some pictures. 






That night we stayed at the Salt Hotel.  Everything was made from salt; the floors, the beds, the tables, the walls. I have no idea why I took no pictures!  The six of us shared a room and we had showers! Not together of course. We also had electricity to power up our cameras/phones, unlike the previous night. No internet as you would expect. But that was a good thing! My fingers had stopped twitching by now as the urge to grab my phone and check email, Facebook, Internet etc. had now, without a doubt, subsided. Freedom.
