because of heavy traffic and delays, our bus journey took 14 hours to get from antofagasta to la serena! the travel tablets knocked me out again, i´m still recovering - they´re great! got in early this morning and reached hostal punto. run by a german couple. it´s like the hostal we stayed in, in cusco - very cosy. there is a restaurant there from 5pm to 10pm, and you can get beers, sandwiches and cakes. gonna chill there tonight. cable TV again! they didn´t have a double room for us for tonight, so we are sleeping in the yoga room! it´s a big big room and we´re sleeping in the corner. they`ll have a proper room for us tomorrow night.
la serena reminds me of san diego. good roads, well developed, large shopping malls, etc. the plaza armas is lovely and we´re gonna check out the beach later. dee rang ray today as it´s his birthday (won´t mention ages, but he`s really really old). hehe.
