The first night we got a lift from where we waited last time, this time a woman, her mother and daughter took us about 20km or so, we weren't even waiting, just happened to be crossing the road next to her and Dries asked, we got in and went. We then didn't have to wait too long when we were picked up by a pick up. I managed to fulfil my dream and ride in the back of a pick up and it was now sunset so I got to ride out the sunset in the back of a pick up. Riding in the back of a pick up was just how I had imagined it to be, it was windy, noisy and you got a good view of everything at the sides and behind. It was a great deal of fun and I wouldn't mind doing it again and again. It was bloody cold when the sun went down so I put on my jacket and enjoyed the ride, the driver took us to La Ligua, which was a little bit more than half way between Santiago and Los Vilos, approximately 150km from Santiago. We camped on the side of the road right up tight to a farm fence, it was the softest ground and the nearest place for us to go.
