Chile is a long thin country sandwiched between the Pacific Ocean and the Andes.There is one main North South road, Ruta 5, which is also the Panamerican Highway.
Today we drove 500km along this straight flat, straight road to Santiago. From time to time there were short diversions to avoid bridges or bits of road damaged by the earthquake. Many of these are already patched up or are being permanently repaired. This is a major toll road. But that doesn't stop the locals riding their horses and driving their tractors down it.
