Iquique: Where the Desert Meets the Sea

first view from the airport windows

first view of the ocean

local college

little less traffic on the road

high rises on the rise

in front of a military academy

apartments on the "peninsula"

streetside vendors

this is where some miners' hard-earned pesos go

beautiful sunsets

city nestled in the desert

local up-town supermarket

Islamic mosque

reminder to finish what we've started (abandoned house project)

Praying for your decision. Is the one that you are leaning towards what you were hoping for?

Iquique looks interesting, I am anxious to see it some time when I visit (Lord willing).
