Final stop of the day was Laguna Colorada another stunning lake only this time a deep red colour, and complete with hundreds of flamingos. There´s one thing seeing them in the zoo but to see them in their natural habitat was brilliant.
Home for the night was a "refugio" which scored a big fat zero !! No shower, no water, no electricity, and beds designed for the vertically challenged. As for the toilets ... a hole in the ground would be a generous description. Having said all of that the cook rustled up the best chicken, chips and salad I´ve had for a long time, and all on a single gas ring.
Getting to sleep was not so good. My 6ft4in frame in a 5ft bed, tempeartures of minus 10 and just a thin mud wall to offer protection. The only answer was to jump ino my sleeping bag fulling clothed, including fleece, wooly hat, and my trusty M&S thermal vest.
