Fwd: Salt Production

We have now been to the Saline Museum four times. Finally, it was open. We learned how the salt was processed and wandered along the salt pans.

Salt water is pumped into pools and left to dry. In olden days they used a large windmill to process the salt and a smaller windmill as a pump station. Randy paid for a souvenir bag of salt while ours was colleced when no one was around, i.e. stolen! We saw a flock of flamingos, several groups of egrets and a noisy bunch of ducks.
