Valle de la Luna, Atacama Desert

In San Pedro, we did an afternoon tour into the desert to see the Valle de la Luna (Valley of the Moon). Some beautiful rock formations all around. Many of the rocks were full of natural salt which you could hear contracting and expanding. You also got great views of the almost perfectly conical volcano outside town.







Here´s Karen adrift in the desert.



But the highlight was watching the sunset and seeing all of the brilliant colors changing gracefully on the desert landscape. Truly awe-inspiring.
