A day in a million(ish).

On advice we changed our plans for todays activities, based on the fact that much of what we would have seen was already bettered by what we saw yesterday.

Today dawned bright, sunny and as calm as you can imagine. The morning’s tour took us to Laguna Amarga, where the reflections above were to be seen. The conditions were perfect, so much so that our guide and driver both got out their cameras! General consensus is that they only get about 5 days a year with this view. After just standing admiring that for a few mins, we headed off to Laguna Azul, where we had more stunning vistas, and a stroll along the beach, spotting condors high overhead. A wonderfully relaxing morning.

The afternoon was another gentle walk across pampas populated by a number of guanaco, and the remains of several others that had become lunch for Pumas. The end goal was a few rock paintings left behind by the indigenous population that were horrifically treated by the colonists, as recently as the 1920s. The rock art was not plentiful, but poignant none the less.
