Day 80 - Copiapo to Vina del Mar, Chile ๐จ๐ฑ
Quite long ride of over 700 kms (460 miles) where we rode most of the day very close to the Pacific Ocean.
Copiapรณ has a quite a lot of artistic graffiti.
Temperatures swung a lot and we had to add and take out clothes a number of times. Got about 90 minutes of pretty heavy and cold fog.
Went to eat lunch by the sea in La Serena, Chile ๐จ๐ฑ.
Arrived in Viรฑa del Mar already at dark dusk.

Day 79 - Antofagasta to Copiapo, Chile ๐จ๐ฑ
There are two road options to do, one is the Ruta 5 through the desert and the other is the Ruta 1 by the coast. When we came north as we wanted to visit the Hand in the Desert we took Ruta 5. So this time we took Ruta 1 and were totally blown over.
We started at sea level at Antofagasta climbed to 6,000+ feet where we rode for an hour, came back down to sea level at Paposo, then climbed again at Taltal back to 2,000+ feet and then came down to sea level at Chaรฑaral.
The views were breathtaking and I said “Wow” many times on these 500+ kms.
In my opinion, this day makes the top 5 for the whole trip, in terms of riding a motorcycle experience and scenery.
Enjoy !

Day 78 - San Pedro de Atacama to Antofagasta, Chile ๐จ๐ฑ
Before leaving the San Pedro de Atacama region, still visited the Mirador Piedra Del Coyote in Valle de la Luna. Saw the largest copper mine in the world in the distance. Arrival to Antofagasta is always amazing. We got a room with a view which during sunset was a beautiful bay with Peruvian Pelicans.
