conference times

Buenas muchachos, Hurrah free internet! Here I am in the amazing desert of the Atacama, first day of the conference on southern hemisphere deserts and with my talk looming on the horizon - only about an hour away! Gaaagh! Arrived on plane from Santiago, having stopped along the way, much like a bus would - dropping passengers off, picking up new ones - and ended up in the four star luxury of the conference hotel. But no one was here! So I slept off my jetlag and hoped more people would turn u...

passing the time in Arica

... the national dish. This must be Monique´s kind of country. I also got some pastries at La Espiga bakery on Baquedano. They´re good but the staff there is even better. Very friendly and helpful. Tonight I leave at 10pm for San Pedro, northern Chile´s backpacker mecca. It´s been nice but strange to be one of very few tourists and the only Anglophone I´ve met in Arica. Maybe I´ll get to have some conversations in the mother tongue soon.

Strip-searched at the Border

The only sense of urgency we felt Monday morning compelling us to leave the warmth of our very comfortable beds was the fact that neither of us wanted to do any border crossing after dark. With another six-hour bus ride looming over our heads however, we got dressed, enjoyed another complementary "breakfast" of coffee and assorted rolls (no wonder no one here is taller than me, Wheaties anyone?), and made our way through rush-hour traffic in Peru's second largest city ...

Beaches, Booze, and Buddies..

... they are generally similar in standard to place meals, enough said), you generally do expect to be able to eat them. For me this was not one of those meals... lunch consisted of mani (peanut) soup, this was fine, but the main meal was tongue. Yes tongue. Now i'm not really a big meat eater at the best of times, however i was willing to give it a chance, and i did in fact try some (but hated it all the same). But my problem did not so much lie ...

... de mare, in port. Erau vreo 7-8. Sunt tare dragutzi. Erau cateva femele mai finutze, vreo 2 mai puiutzi si un ditai masculu´feroce, care pufaia ca o locomotiva. Si plin de pelicani. Dar de aia mari, nu gluma. Cand i-a vazut, Dragos a zis ¨Asta e mai greu decat Delia :D¨. Si cormorani. Am luat pranzul la un restaurant pescaresc, chiar pe mal. &gt;Stateai pe scaun si te uitai la lei, cum se joaca. Dragos a ...

Arica, just across the border

... international bus terminal where we got the first taxi we saw. We filled out the paper work and he then showed us to his car which looked like something out of the flintstones. Twas funny really lookin back on it, there were 6 in the car including the driver, 2 of them were fairly well on it and had brought a bag of cans for the journey, we were so recked we didnt really care. Dont know how they got through the border controls in such a state though. We arrived in ...

A desert in the ocean

... We played for a while in the playground, and then went down to have a swim. I knew this would be the last time in I don't know how long that I would be able to swim in an ocean, so despite the murky brown colour of the crashing waves, I took the plunge. And it was okay. Patrick wasn't as keen, he got his lower half wet at least, but Blair wouldn't have a bar of it. After playing in the disgusting sand for a while, we cleaned off and went to ...
