Day two of our tour. Today we saw a lot of different lagunas, of all different colors. One that is full of copper and other minerals, making it bright green whenever the wind stirred it up. One that is bright white. And this one, the Laguna Colorada, is bright red due to all the microorganisms living in the water. Hence, it is usually full of flamingos feasting on either these microorganisms or the aquatic plants on the bottom.
