Our friends always repeated that they wanted us to have a nice trip, to have good memories and to enjoy as much as we can. They brought us this day see the pink lake which was the arrival of the Paris-Dakar.
This is a big lake with a special plankton which gives the lake its color. This plankton gives also the color of prawns and flamingo. They are lots of people working there, extracting tons of salt everyday. When they collect the salt they apply some butter on their skin to protect it so they can stay on the water for several hours.
