Arica, Chile!

After three great weeks we have left Peru and arrived in Arica, the northernmost city of Chile. So far we have passed some relaxing two days seeing the Morro, a strangely shaped hill taken by the chileans during the war of the Pacific, the beautiful (but quite dirty) beach and the towns church, constructed by Eiffel before he made his famous tower. Tomorrow night we will be moving on to San Pedro de Atacama, in the Atacama dessert. From there we are planing to do a jeep excursion to the Bolivian side of the dessert!








Also I can proudly anounce that at last I´m in an internet cafè having my camera AND a charged battery AND the cable. Thus my photos from the Titicaca Lake will be uploaded to Pierres blogpost. Enjoy!

Hej! Tack så jätte myckett för kortet!

And yes I wish I were there as well, around a Pisco Sour and on road to San Pedro.

Oh well I'll be in Tunisia tonight 10pm so I guess I can't complain too much :D

So you´re back in Pisco country now! Have one for me in San Pedro. It´s about a year since last time.

Eiffel est vraiment venu se perdre au find fond du CHili ? Qu'est-ce qu'il faisait là ? Un road trip de jeunesse ? Si c'est le cas, vous êtes promis tous deux à de belles réalisations futures !

Pierre said...

Oui, il est venu faire ses essais. Y en a un peu partout dans le coin, mais cet essai la etait pas top...

y a pas une mini tour Eiffel planquée dans un de ces bleds ?

En fait, il était là en stage ouvrier quoi !
