If not for the ocean providing some sense of escape, I would have to wonder if we ever going to out-run the immense reach of this desert. Soon enough the signs of life, both plant and human, were starting to come back along the road. It was strange to be rolling down the highway with gas stations, stores, vacation resorts, and places to eat littered along the way. We didn't stop much that day, as we got into the rhythm of the fast pace riding and perhaps because there was something less appealing about this influx of modern society. Regardless, Chile is a amazingly beautiful country with plenty of sleepy little coastal towns where we always seem to find good places to stay.
