Desert, desolation, pure hot sand as far as you can see...and then you pop over a sand dune and see ocean! That's what it's like to be travel from Bolivia through the Atacama Desert, to Iquique, a medium-sized port city in northern Chile. This time I arrived via airplane from Santiago and spent Easter weekend in Iquique.
