Today we drove from Arica in Chile through the desert to visit a marvellous museum,
Museo Arqueologico San Miguel de Azapa, which holds some of the oldest mummies in the world. We passed a few interesting sites along the way but the Mummies were the highlight of my day.

There were many instances of political and protest slogans in Arica

 |
| A Sports Field |
 |
These representations of Llamas on the hillside are said to be 1,000 yea rs old!!! |
 |
There were some arable areas along the way...
|
 |
and a lot of desert
|
 |
There were many displays that didn't feature Mummies
