Bolivia and Chile Sat Apr 18 Slide Show Diane Marron This South American adventure begins in the Atacama Desert in northern Chile, the driest desert in the world, then off to the Salar de Uyuni of Bolivia, the largest salt flats in the world, then a visit to the magical city of La Paz, the highest capital city of the world, and ending in Barranca, the “Soho” of Lima, above the shores of the largest ocean in the world.

This journey encompasses the moonlike landscapes of the desert with its dramatic rock formations and expansive sand dunes sculpted by millennia of wind and water erosion; the colorful lagoons of the Altiplanos of Chile and Bolivia where wildlife such as flamingoes, vicunas and llamas thrive and where there is a special feeling one can experience of being on top of the world, perhaps because of the rarified atmosphere at 14,000 feet above sea level.

This two-week journey into the sand and the salt and the sea, and to the lagoons and the geysers and the Piedras Rojas, and to the magic of La Paz and its culture, and stepping into the past in Barranca is the “altiplano” of my adventures and I look forward to sharing this with my photographs and videos.
