San Pedro de Atacame 02.mars.2004.

Welcome to the begining of a crazy journey into the desert...Have to write the text...but pics are there !!!

San Pedro de Atacama is a city situated 120 km of Calama. This village is a little oasis midle in the desert. A lot of people will think about this city: that s a tourist place. Well I don t know, I just hang arround two days and didn t stay in contact with the backpacker. Well I did, but with few of them. I find a quite camping midle in the town where I put my tent. After I went out into the street and enjoy the simplicity of the houses and the ambiance. No street just ways of dusty sand. Coming here after beeing in Santiago is a big big change. Everything seems simple. Well so simple that sometimes the water in the city just stop for hours...Hehehe can you imagine that in Europe.

So I get into the city and took information to go into Bolivia
