Long Delays Possible

Salt flats

Just one of the pictures I took the last week in Utah. This place is very much known because of the car speed tests. I imagine they only do them in summer, when the thin layer of water disappears. Now, it looks more like a mirror with crusts of salt on it. I really liked the surroundings of this place. It is a desert, a kind of place I am not very used to.

And yes, the water is salty. I tasted it.
