It has been a bit of traveling and time in a bus, but as a result Pedro and I are all the way up in La Serena, a city that lies about 7 hours north in bus from Santiago. The 12 hour ride up to Santiago during the day was completely enjoyable, we bought a portable DVD player (Pedro thought of that one) and got to watch a bit of a movie and see the surrounding get drier and hotter before our very eyes! La Serena is right on the beach and has more of a tropical feel, which is pretty amazing after all the wintery weather in Valdivia. We plan to stay the night here, then head over to Valle de Elqui tomorrow to spend some time in enjoying the new climate and natural surroundings.
