We had a day's tour today leaving La Caldera at 7am and heading north. Heading though Purmamarca, with the magnificent hill of seven colours, we crossed to the Altiplano. The Altiplano is a high desert plane in the Andes around 3000m. We passed over 4170m and drove on to Las Salinas Grandes – the large Salt Flats – that are amazingly white. We drove on intending to stay in San Salvador, but discovered no accommodation had been arranged. Our amazing driver David had a contact in Humahuaca, and we found a hostel that could take us in. We finished the evening with traditional Locolo stew, Andean folk music and Quechua dancing – absolutely fantastic.
