Not dead, just lazy

Hey all
Despite having been peacefully resting up at Dad's apartment in Santiago de Chile for the past several days we have completely failed to update this blog in any substantial way, or in fact, any way at all. Tomorrow we leave for Pucon in the south of Chile for a few days. We aren't really sure what to expect except high prices and lots of Chilano tourists - apparently it is one of the main domestic tourism destinations. On offer are a variety of 'adventure' style activities, as well as bushwalking and the like. We plan on attempting white water rafting and perhaps something else. We'll see.
Since we last wrote from San Pedro, we have:
visited the worlds highest geyser field (except Luke)
stood in a river in the middle of the driest desert in the world (except Luke)
Seen a 1200 year old cactus (except Luke)
Mountain biked through the desert to see a sunset in the Valle de la Luna
Riden a horse through the desert, in some Good, Bad and Ugly country
sandboarded after horseriding
travelled 2000km and 22hrs by bus. In a row.

Do I dare ask what happened to Luke? Was just wondering that this morning actually....is Luke in a shallow grave somewhere or got his tongue stuck on a cactus or something?

Stop being lazy and give us some photos! Come on!

I would also like to know where Luke is...

Luke Lives! As far as I've been told by him on the phone (at least I think it was him!?)...he DID do the mountainbiking, the horseriding and the sandboarding...just "laid-low" in San Pedro...hey, that rhymes! Maybe there was some Bad Cowboy in town wanting to throw a cactus at him or worse!
