Northern Argentina to the Bolivian Border

We leave the Southern countries of Chile and Argentina and enter new territory!  The wilds of BOLIVIA!





We passed through the Northern Argentina salt flats, the Salinas Grandes. 
The ancient dried-up river remnants that create the salt flat leave a completely surreal image.  You are surrounded by an immaculate white landscape, the only break in the horizon being the majestic Andes Mountains.
We then passed by the Cerro de los Siete Colores (Hills of the Seven Colors) in Purmamarca, the Salta-Jujuy district.  I so want to spend some time here!  We need to come back!


Gorgeous camp spot high above Jujuy, Argentina.  Our last night in this country.

Epiphytes were EVERYWHERE on all the telephone lines, throughout our drive from Jujuy, North to the Bolivian border. 
Good bye Argentina, hello BOLIVIA!
We have come to that bridge...time to cross it!
