San Perros de Atacama..arf!
We finished our Salt Flats tour in San Pedro (this decision was made about midnight on the bus the night before - we like spontaneous country changes!). We drove for quite a while through the desert to get to this little but lovely town. When we arrived our bags were thoroughly searched by customs men for fruit and vegetables as they are really …
Loving Chile!

Ensuite, nous pouvons admirer les objets célestes de plus près grâce a 10 grands télescopes pointés sur différents: étoiles en train de naître, en train de mourir, de différentes couleurs, détails de la lune, constellations...
