Me trying to look though and Ellen caught it on picture......
Ellen and me just before the sunset in the "Valle de la Luna"
This is our last day in the desert. We fly back to Santiago tonight. From there we´ll go to Pucón with the night bus. I have been quite ill these days which overshadowed the trips a little bit, but I still went, sniffing and snorting. Everything was really beatiful, especially the sunset in the Valle de la Luna, (Moonvalley). The colours changed every second and it took my breath away. Next day saltplanes and flamingo´s; i will not bother you with details of the flamingo´s we have spotted, because they all look the same to be honest except for some colour differences. But a beautiful and graceful bird it is and it does not really matter if has a Chilean nose or a Peruvian wing..Me being very cold at the geysers
The next night we had to wake up 03.30 in the morning to go to the geysers del Tatio. This is a phenomenon that one cannot miss eventhough all the circumstances seem quite unattractive. Waking up at 03.30 in the morning in the dessert means extreme cold! The geysers are situated at 4.320 m above sea level, which means in automn -8 d C. We were wearing 9 layers of clothes to survive. I did not drop into a geyser hole, which was quite possible, 85 d C. Photo´s will be on site soon, like that can witness our drop dead gorgeous moments in the desert.
