Amazing Race Entry 5
Hey it's Redmango! The next place that I am visiting is the Atacama Plateau in Chile. Santiago De Chile is the capital of Chile. The countries that border Chile are Peru on the north, Argentina on the east and Bolivia on the northeast. Chile is also bordered by the Pacific Ocean. The coordinates are 33º 27' S, 70º 40' W. In summer (December through February) daytime temperatures show 27° Celsius, with highs of 30°, and at night they drop to 16°. These temperatures vary in winter (June through August), with 22° in the daytime and 4° average at night with lows about 8° below. Also the rainy season is from January to March. In Chile there are 358 airports, 80,505 Km of highway and if you want to travel by boat they are many ports and harbors to travel to and from. The distance between Kunming and the Atacama Plateau is 11,609.65 miles. We got there by plane. There were no lay overs. We used delta air lines. It cost about 8,000 dollars. I feel really good about our travels I had fun on the way over it was very pretty when you looked out the window.
