Bonita Bolivia

Azt mar tudtuk, hogy San Pedrobol lehet terepjaros mokara menni a Salar de Uyuniba. Igy egyuttal mar at is jutunk kovetkezo allomasunkra, Boliviaba. Sikerult ugynokseget valasztani, es kedvezmenyt is ki tudtunk csikarni - ugy tunik mi voltunk az elso magyarok.
Reggel nyolc, irany a hatar. A boliviai az eleg vicces - rozoga epulet a hegyek kozott. Idaig minibusszal, innen 4x4 jarganyokkal mentunk tovabb.
Elso celpont a Laguna Blanca es a Laguna Verde. A ket to alig par szaz meterre van egymastol. Egyik zold, masik feher, egyikben arzen, masikban szulfur. Innen tovabb a Polque furdohoz, ami a maga 4200 meteres magassagaval allitolag az egyik legmagasabban levo termeszetes melegvizu furdo (SPA). Aztan nyomas a helyi gejzirekhez, majd a Laguna Colorada (4950m) ami dobbenetes piros-feher szinekben nyomja. Valami moszatfelesegtol van ilyen szine, mindossze 80cm mely, es fullon van flamingokkal. Utobbiak kezdetben szurkek, aztan ha mar kello mennyisegu piros cuccot kajaltak, bepirulnak ok is :)
Mivel egy nap alatt 2400 meterrol 4000 fole emelkedtunk estere mi is kulonbozo szineket vettunk fel. Szallasunk 4350 meteren volt ami rendesen megviselte az egesz brigadot, de leginkabb engem. Gyakorlatilag csak arra voltam kepes, hogy ket koka tea kozott ragcsaljam a leveleket. Lenyomtunk meg valami kajat es mindenki beajult meg kilenc elott.

We already knew that there are 4WD tours from San Pedro to Salar de Uyuni and our next destination, Bolivia. We choosed an agency and also managed to get some discount - seemingly we were the first Hungarians on their trip. We went by transporters to the bolivian border which is a simple building in the mountains, and switched to 4x4.
The first destinations were Laguna Blanca and Laguna Verde. They are only a few meters from each other but one is green and the other is white. One contains sulfur, the other arzen. Then going to one of the highest spas in the world. The Polque is on 4200m. After a nice bath we visited some geysers ad ended up at the Laguna Colorada (4950m). A red and white laguna, full with 3 different types of flamingos. Most of them are grey, but after one year they turn into pink because of the algas or whatever.
The changes in the altitude from 2400 to 4350 where our "hostel" situated, made us totally done. Betwen two coca teas I was able only to chew the rest of the leaves, and fall in bed before nine.
