Southeast Bolivia is home to the world´s largest salt flats. This amounts to huge expanses of flat land surrounded by snow capped mountains. Big lakes, super dry deserts, and llamas, alpacas and vicuñas everywhere. As you can see from the photos, there are a few interesting things going on here. First, and most notable, is the huge population of flamingos. There are three different species that summer in Bolivia and winter in Chile and Argentina. But what makes it even more interesting is that the salt flats are roughly 14-15,000 feet above sea level. We are way up here. That makes the hills and mountain surrounding the plains almost 20,000 feet. Mt. Everest is less than 30,000 feet. This is home to flamingos? Yep, lots of em.
Much like her parents, Cora spends most of her days wearing comfy pants and sweatshirts but every now and then....we get her all dolled up to hit the town. Any excuse we have to put her in some of the adorable clothes her Grandma TT has bought her. Here are some of her holiday outfits and I will say, I've never seen someone look so cute in tights!
