There are only two landlocked countries in South America. So either Bolivia or Paraguay

Yes, ma'am. And which one is your guess? :-)

I'm sorry, you have to give more than just the country. It's a very specific geographic feature inside the country. I hope that most people can look at a map and find the land locked countries in South America.

Lake Titicaca, Bolivia?

Paco- I've been to Bolivia, and the exact spot of your photo. I am assuming it is what is called the "Laguna Colorado", where I remember the flamingos in sub zero temperatures at moderately high altitude. There was also a "Laguna Verde" and "Laguna Blanca", all named for the hues of the water. Not far from there was one of my favorite places in the world, the "Salar de Uyuni", or GIANT salt flat. It had a small 'island' in the middle, and a nearby hotel built entirely from salt. Also in Bolivia was the world's highest ski lift, at over 17,000 feet. I walked up 500 feet or so at that altitude, probably breathing at around 50 breaths per minute. Lake Titicaca was also remarkable. I loved Bolivia. Thank you for this thread which reminds me of that great trip!
