Monday, August 28, 2023 | Michaela Achatzi | North and South America

Salar de Uyuni
Salta last day
Border from Bolivia to Argentina
Good morning Tarjia
Salar de Uyuni
Valle de Luna
Salta
Mountains so high and so close you think you can touch them from a plane
This is the first impression you get just before landing in Salta, our starting point for our adventure in South America.

Welcome in South Amerika / Argentina

Let's go

 

 

 

Now the time has finally come: our adventure in South America begins.

Stefan, Dirk, Juergen and Andrzej

from Germany

 

are happily excited.

All there a day earlier to escape the jetlag and

 

the city of Salta something to discover.

We have winter time here, of which we don't notice anything. The trees are blooming, a bright blue sky and up to 30 degrees, ok in the morning it's only 2 degrees.

With the Teleférico San Bernardo on the city hill with a fantastic view. The mountains around

 

incredibly beautiful .

After our welcome briefing and an incredibly good dinner

 

 

let's go to bed so we're rested tomorrow.

Because we want to go through Argentina, Chile and Bolivia.

Will spend a lot of time at over 4000m

 

be in the driest desert and sail the largest salt lake in the world

Wintertime

But first remove the salt from the motorbikes
I thought I was in the land of the llamas...
Sand Einlage vom Feinsten
The old street, we could just hold Dirk back

Hello Michaela
Das sind unglaublich schöne Bilder. Irgendwie wie von einer anderen Welt! Ja, wir durften ACP und APA „erfahren“ und beide Touren waren traumhaft. Aber AAP: ja, muss definitiv noch sein; irgendwie einfach gigantisch!! Geniesst das Abenteuer in vollen Zügen.
Liebste Grüsse von Martin & Uli

Hallo Marc ,
Ja du hast nicht tief gestapelt, Argentinien ist ein wunderbares Land
Heute sind wir in Chile angekommen. Und nicht erfroren
Nun versteh ich einiges
Gruß
