Again our guidebook mis-guided us into thinking that Uyuni was just a platform town to explore the nearby salt-flats from, but we really liked it. A busy street market populated by cheery round ladies in bowler hats, llama meat pizza for dinner, a train graveyard (all old English locos) and a quirky little museum housing mummified Inca bodies and deliberately deformed skulls (they used to tie boards to girls heads to shape the skull into a cone, but we're still unclear if it was for fashion or some other purpose) make it somewhere to stop in it's own right.
