La Serena was much bigger than we expected, it reminded us of home and even had a shopping centre like Dundrum...we were shocked! Managed to find playing cards at last though. Checked into a great hostel (Marias Casa) and even bumped into some old friends from Salkantay (Hi Flo and Alex).
Treated ourselves to some nice food from the first Supermarket we have seen in ages, sushi, blue cheese and chorizo...mmm!!! Especially when washed down with some lovely (and cheap) Chilean wine!
We went to visit the observatory and it was amazing. Our guide was extremely enthuasiastic and knowledgeable ( he is saving to go to Memphis in 2017 for the next lunar eclipse!). The views were amazing.
