Salar De Uyuni - Day 2

The second day got even better. We were able to see a bunch of lagunas, including Laguna Verde, an aquamarine lake that got its colour in an interesting way; The people living in the area had a large amount of copper valuables, and when the Spanish came through, they didn´t want them to get it, so they hucked it in the lake, and over time, it turned the water greenish (like the roof of the capital buildings in O-dot).

We actually stayed at a place called Lago Colorado, but ballofdirt couldn`t find it.

Drove by a family of altiplanos slaughtering a llama, pretty haggered, but you gotta eat.
