Our Final Day


We left Elqui Valley in the morning and i have never been so happy to head home from a holiday. It was quite a drive home and we stopped in another national park, Fray Jorge National Park. This park was really interesting as it was a rainforest in the middle of the desert. It exists because of coastal fog that gets trapped by the leaves and moss of the trees and drips down creating a much greener scene. Not quite the rainforest we were expecting but there were trees and wildlife instead of nothing.

After the stop in the rainforest we headed home, we stopped at a famous cheese empanada place on the side of the road and boy were they good. We arrived in the Smog around 7pm and once again were asked to go out for a piss up at the eating machines place so that "we could have closure on the trip" yet again we declined this time with no excuse just a plain no. Our ears rejoiced as we leaped off the bus, no more annoying laugh or grinding teeth or annoying people in general we were free.

We did have a good time believe it or not it was just unfortunate that we got stuck with a rather painful bunch of people, a good experience all round.
