what is it about bolivia and its placid, beautiful lagoons?



more importantly, what is it about bolivia and its completely improbable, contradictory, and just plain trippy landscapes?



take the laguna colorada, 4500m above sea level. its waters are fiery red. and even though it is in the middle of a desert and ringed by volcanoes, it is permanently populated by enormous islands of ice. as well as hundreds of flamingos. all together now: what the hell???
