Ahh, half term on the horizon, a well desereved rest for you.
Dads birthday, I´ll try and phone again today but I don´t know what day it is, I think it's Saturday.
We are in Iquique, a city on the beach in Chile we travelled overnight and got here this morning. I´ve got a good tan because its been sunny for the last week. San Pedro, the last place we stayed in last is right on the edge on the driest desert in the world, and to get there we had to travel for 2 days across the desert in a 4x4 jeep with a couple from Canada and 2 Swiss blondes in their 20´s, bummer. Ha, Ha.... what a positive experience.
We have got into a routine, I´m a more relaxed and organised
traveller now and my mate and I are getting on quiet well. Although I got very miffed about losing my camera and MP3, both my fault but I am not going to let it spoil things, I may even replace them because we are going looking round an electronics market place soon which are rare on our travells.
I´ll have to check on the money situation.
Well I better sign off for now, hope you are all allright....
Check out wiki here.

It is located at 20°13′S 70°10′W and has a population of 221,400 (2004). The city's name comes from the Aymara word "Ique-ique", which translates to "laziness", but can also mean "sleep" or "bed."
