From the afternoon of the second day on, the trip is nothing but highlight after highlight, a tour of photo ops. Laguna Colorada was the main highlight of the third day. The lake was not nearly as red as the famous postcards and posters—I imagine that's a late afternoon thing. But we could still see no hint of ordinary clear water or a simple reflection of blue sky...enough redness to remind us we were still on Mars.
