Saturday, May 3, - Day 137
Today I went to the Valle de la Luna, which is about 10 miles from San Pedro. The place is called the Valley of the Moon because that’s what people say it looks like – the surface of the Moon. There’s a weird cocktail of minerals here that form some really strange patterns and formations. If you just stand quietly, you can hear the formations crack and groan as the minerals heat and cool at different rates. Besides the rock formations, the main attraction is the Great Sand Dune. It is immense, and was formed by thousands of years of wind erosion. Everyone climbs a path to the top to watch the sunset.
