Hostal Vilama San Pedro de Atacama

... over a bottle of German rum on that first night, the Old East Germany. The stories he could, and did, tell me about the communist days would make your eyes water. Or it may have just been the rum. We also had a mystery eighth member of the tour group, Greg. Greg never actually turned up but in honour of him we always left a spare chair at the table for dinner and toasted him for the first drink of the night. God bless our Greg. Wherever he may be. We also plan to befriend him on ...

... could dive in from the lip about 5 meters to the water - but was it cold.... That got rid of most of the salt... <br>We drove another 30 mins to a third lagoon where you could paddle - it was really shallow... we sat and watched the sun set drinking pisco sours and eating snacks... a pretty good end to a really nice day!<br>

... voor de boeg. <br>Slaappil heeft goed gewerkt, alleen heeft een of andere slimmerik ergens in the middle of nowhere een soort check point neergezet waar alle baggage gecontroleerd moest worden en wij kwamen daar leuk om 3 uur ´s nachts aan. Dus half slaapwandelend alles doorstaan en toen weer verder. Viel me erg mee de reis.<br><br>San Pedro is een toeristisch soort van woestijn stadje in Noord Chili.

Salutare! Chiar daca suntem in San Pedro de Atacama, o sa va spunem cate ceva si despre ultima zi petrecuta in Salta si traversarea Anzilor spre Chile. Sambata, in Salta am vizitat MAAM (Museo de Arheologia Alta Montana). este un muzeu nou deschis, in 2006, dupa ce au gasit pe varful vulcanului Llullaillaco (6720m) o serie de altare incase si o gramada de locuri de sacrificii. In aceste lacase au gasit 4 mumii ale unor copii, adusi ofranda muntelui. Nu am ...

Heute geht es mit einer Tour noch mal in die Atacamawueste die sich suedlich San Pedros erstreckt. Die trockenste Wueste der Erde! Nachdem ich am Abend zuvor noch an einer Sternbeobachtungsstunde des oertlichen Wissenschaftlers teilgenommen habe, wobei die Sicht leider wegen des Mondes nicht so gut war, kann ...

After an overnight bus from the Chilean border town of Arica, we arrived yesterday morning in the mining town of Calama (or Carumba, as I like to call it.) We should have known to keep moving when the town´s best (and only tourist attraction) is one of the world´s largest copper strip mines. If that wasn´t enough to motivate onward migration, the surprisingly expensive, exceedingly grungy hotel rooms on offer inspired an instant ...
