All of this was born about 40,000 years ago.
An Inca legend says that in the desert there are "ojos de sal "(eyes of salt) that swallowed the caravans ... .. These are holes from which water flows below and / or an optical effect of light conditions and details are not noticed and then dangerous. In this seemingly inhospitable place three species of flamingos nest! In truth, this happens "the Isla Pescado" for the Inca Cujiri "(island of the fish, because it is shaped vaguely) a agrotta the edge of the desert mummies were discovered 3000 years ago (I'll show you) ; forgotten all that is different from the desert island is called and everything 4000mslm and beyond!

Is it because after hours of "nothing" everything is beautiful, you are at this time ... emotivamentesono fragile. BUT WONDER !!!!!
