Where it gets dry.. very dry

On our drive from Calama to San Pedro de Atacama


Desayuno at our hostel. Nick drinking mate

Catching up on emails

The town church




Taking some sun- at 2,000 metres it was a wee bit cold

Looking for a poncho for Olivia


We wondered why the Carabineros cleared the street - it turned out to be "Celebracion San Pedro y San Pablo 2010"


Let the celebrations begin!



The old chap was coordinating



Peruvian Indians join the celebrations



Capitan Shmidt (clearly German extraction) keeps an eye on things

Locals arrive


And representing local indigenous ....

Paulie sang along to the hit tune Cancion a San Pedro "Era Pedro"


Representing the Spanish


Dinnertime was still cold despite the fire

Into the Valle de la Luna
