Torres Del Pines

After Jamie´s arrival on Saturday night, we left BA on Monday morning to do some trekking and outdoor activities in Patagonia. A good way of keeping him off the booze and taking some pretty pictures if nothing else I reasoned. Monday morning arrives and Jamie has somewhat overlooked his...

Flamingos, Salt and the Altiplano lakes

Yesterday we went on an all-day tour of some local towns, the Salar de Atacama (Salt flat), then up to the Altiplano lakes Miscanti and Miñiques. Unlike our tour of Valle de la Luna, we actually had an English speaking guide and got a whole lot more out of the day. At the salt flat we saw...

What a difference a day makes!

Talk about a shock! The day started leaving our hotel at 5:45 to get to the airport for our flight, everything went well and the bus system was no trouble at all. It was surprising to see lots of people out on the streets on a Saturday Morning. We got to the airport and got to the check-in...

Smog and Mountains

We spent 3 days in Santiago and thought it was a pretty cool city. It certainly does big doors on buildings and public parks and open spaces very well ... its just a pity about all the smog. We went to the pre-columbian museum and saw a whole bunch of statues of cool dudes. The exhibitions...

Santiago

After a 24 hour commute, we´ve made it to Santiago. Not much to report about the trip except that Cath was excited when we were served sausage on the plane for breakfast. The other cool thing was that they started playing dramatic Latin music on the plane speakers as we flew into and over Chile...

Der letzte Tag

Heute geht unsere Reise zuende: mittags zurück von Buenos Aires (mit einer unverschämt teuren Flughafensteuer) nach Santiago, wo wir einen letzten Spätnachmittag in der Innenstadt beim Bummeln und Einkaufen verbringen. Ein letztes Abendessen, wieder in der Lastarria, diesmal bei einem...

Reisetag

Jetzt hat definitv die Rückreise begonnen, und heute ist ein ganzer Reisetag: um 7:00 morgens mit dem Bus von Arequipa nach Tacna, was wieder nur erfreuliche 5h30 dauert (statt bis zu 7h00 laut Auskunft diverser Reisebüros und Agenturen). An einer "Obstkontrolle" entsteht Kontakt zu einem...

Auf Tour mit Oriol (Tag 2)

Am Morgen ist es sonnig, aber kalt. Erste gute Tat von Horiols heute: den Gasofen anzuwerfen! Wir wollten zwar um 8:00 frühstücken, aber der einzige, der um die Zeit schon richtig wach ist, ist Gumesinth(?), genannt "Gumme", ein indígeno, den wir gestern abend kennengelernt haben. Wir hatten ihm...
