crossed the Tropic of Capricorn, and we are the driest desert in the world. Atacama. In some places there was no rainfall throughout the history of the research. Currently we are in the city of Calama. It is our stop on the way to Bolivia - we managed to get tickets to Uyuni! What was the big unknown, because many Chilean companies, the sound of traffic on the word Uyuni ladies in the window with amazement did okrale eyes. About Bolivia heard, but a few calls with her.
Travelling from Santiago to the north with their own eyes we could find about the impact of the Humboldt cold and misty Atacamie (which many times it was rolled on geography lessons and lectures) - is hot, drive through the desert sprouting high, porozczapierzanymi cacti. On the left side of the misty Pacific and huge waves crashing on the rocky coast. On the right side driven by the wind, low-slung clouds.
in inches so we need to spend two nights, but unfortunately one day is zamalo to visit San Pedro de Atacama. In San Pedro more sensitive to what tourists may suffer from altitude sickness (the village lies at an altitude of 4100m above sea level). Certainly worth a visit: Valley of the Moon, geysers, volcanoes, salary ... but that's another time. Now I am sympathetic in a desert climate Calamy. By day, hot, at sunset the temperature drops drastically to a few degrees above zero. Clear skies, around the city a total wasteland, no plants. Here and there, apparently, saguaro cacti, thorny shrubs and other plants, where you have enough moisture for survival derived from the air.
A few interesting Calama itself has to offer. Although the city is quite large (150 000 inhabitants), worth (though maybe the word and it is an overstatement) is seeing only the main square and the nearby promenade.
