My favorite excursion- The Rainbow Valley. So called because the mountains are made up of different elements, such as copper, iron, gypsum or others, to create the color of the mountain. It was so beautiful and peaceful. We were lucky to have been the only two people on this tour, so we could spend as much time as we wanted. In the middle of this dry place were a few plants, and one actually had a bloom! We also saw the rica rica, which is a bush that is used as a tea or to infuse flavor to the pisco, a liquor here in Chile, that will KILL you if you drink too much. A branch of the bush is just shoved into the Pisco bottle, and the drink is called a rica rica sour. YUM!
