South America: Ep 06 - Bolivian Desert

Breakfast was just after 7am this morning and we would be departing at 08:30am in the 4x4's once again.
In the morning we would stop at several different lagoons, where we could see many flamingoes. As the morning went on we would get further into the Bolivian Desert, before stopping somewhere for lunch.

A lagoon with many flamingos.

In the afternoon we would get another view of the active volcano, as we could see some smoke coming out of the top. We would make the final really long drive across the desert to where our homestay would be for the evening, but not before stretching our legs at one final lagoon.


A final rest stop of the day.

Dinner was scheduled for 7:30pm and as we arrived around 5pm we had some time to pass. This homestay had better facilities than the previous night so it was easier to find things to do. We would enjoy our dinner before calling it a day.

A video of this day can be found below:

Amsterdam is a city that I visited several times now, with my first visit been in August 2014. The most recent time was Summer 2016 on the Expat Explore Northern Explorer tour as this was the start and end point. Amsterdam is also a very common connecting hub for international flights into Europe at Schiphol Airport just 10km away from central Amsterdam. Amsterdam is most famous for its bicycles and canals. So on the first evening of our tour we took a cruise around the canals of Amsterdam. As we got to know our group we had the chance to have a pizza and some ice cream on board. Another top sight is the I Amsterdam sign. This is a great spot for tourists to get their group shots. The building just behind that is the Rijksmuseum(Shown below). This has arts and history of the city of Amsterdam and costs €17.50 at the time of writing. I have never been in and have only walked under the archway to get to the canals. Other places of interest in Amsterdam are: Van Gogh Museum

I have been to several cities in Germany, I decided to put them together in 1 blog. Berlin I visited Berlin as part of an Expat Explore's Northern Explorer tour in August 2016. We drove in from Poland on the coach and spent roughly 36 hours here spending 2 nights in the hotel. On the first evening we had a quick visit to Checkpoint Charlie and then onto a meal at a local restaurant which was included. Checkpoint Charlie is the name given to the border crossing between East and West Berlin during the cold war. The following day was a full free day to ourselves. Some of the main activities to see are: The Berlin Wall(Free) remains all over the city and some parts remain in good condition with original graffiti to view. Brandenburg Gate(Free) Reichstag Building(Free with advance booking) is where the German parliament is. Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe(Free) Brandenburg Gate. My video from my video in Berlin can be found below: Munich I visited Mun
