On Friday, January 30th we drove up to Alto Hospicio, our assigned area.  The drive up was extremely interesting as we drove along the coast, passing the Tropic of Capricorn.  We saw a few cactus growing up on the hills/mountains but there was truly nothing growing along the road.  There was just dirt and more dirt.

We passed a golf course so had to stop and take a picture.  The "greens" were nothing more than the dirt blackened.

The ocean is beautiful and felt wonderful as well!!
