Day 1: La Paz

They do not speak English and even their Spanish is basic, but are very friendly and helpful. This is the beginning of the real adventure.<br /> <br /> Lunch is at a restaurant built on salt. During the salt flat crossing, you will be amazed by the colours of the "out of this planet" landscape. The driver has to drive slowly, so you will have plenty of time to relax, enjoy and be amazed by this wonder. You will never forget this day.
