Lladina Estay, a Kiwi girl I met on my 1 day tour from Arica up to Parque Nacional Lauca. She is beside a candelabro (a candle-holder cactus). These cacti receive their moisture from the camanchaca, the moisture laden coastal fog that can sweep in from the Pacific. They grow between 5 and 7 mm per year.
