Atton Las Condes Santiago

... Stadt. Schön sind die Schneebedeckten Berge hinter der Skyline von Santiago.
Grillabend im Hostel und nächsten morgen ab in den Flieger.
Ein paar kleine kulinarische Highlights, Leberwurst zum Frühstück, lange nicht gehabt, die Hotdogs, die werden hier gerne mit Guacamole, Tomaten und Mayonnaise gereicht, dass nennt sich dann italienisch und dann gibt es diese wirklich guten Sandwichs mit 3 Lagen dünnem Fleisch, wie ein Steaksandwich.

Well from Pucon where a lazy days rest after skiing down the volcano consisted of going white water rafting Santiago is a little tame! Especially as it`s Sunday and everything is closed. There seemed to be a masive demonstation going on though and there where loads of police out in roçiot gear ...

... the major chains are here and the shops are all in buildings not market stalls for a change. It’s also odd that everything has a price tag rather than haggling the price as you go. Quite a good stop for us as a half way house before we move on to New Zealand to cushion the culture shock. Of course we were not nearly as interested in the city once we discovered that we could do a day’s skiing in the nearby mountains, much more our style than sitting at ...

... t a difficult climb but sometimes tears are the only things that can provide one with a perception of the beauty that they forbear...Strangely, I almost did the same thing everytime I went into one of the many chcoclates shops of Bariloche which makes this place the home of South American chocolate and being a coco freak...I WAS HOME except I was sharing my room with 3 other people (2 of them bloody Aussies) so not ...

... residents into the center of town and the still active port. After traversing the length of the city (and several of its hills) on foot for 4 hours, I ran short on time and missed touring its sister-and supposedly more ritzy-city of Vina del Mar, but did make time for a beverage stop at a really impressive old warehouse along the port that had been converted into a restaurant\club called Salon Roja, and dinner before the 1.5 hr bus ride through the ...

... so Michael ordered something else... She had gone out to either get quesadillas or the ingredients somewhere else! She was so sweet about the whole thing... we thought it was absolutely hilarious that she had hopped on her bike to resolve the situation... now that's dedication! Anyway, we said goodbye to everyone at the hostel and took a cab to our new apartment. We were so incredibly ...

... piece of strawberry causing a small splattering effect over most of the other fruits!! By now I was in Cardiac Arrest. The emergency team were almost pronouncing me dead as recovery from this seemed impossible! Finally, logic penetrated Lorna's fragile little brain, and she moved seats!! And with such movement, little Sammy flew off into the distance, pleased that his work here was done! A most entertaining start to the day and I ...

... who suggested some things to do in Santiago and told us about their crazy adventures. All those in New Zealand, do the canyon drop, just make sure you are wearing disposable underpants! The plan for the rest of the week is to get a little more organised, check out downtown Santiago and then head to the beach for a day trip or two. Love to you all from the Bek and Jesse train. Peace out!

... erg bond. Na het ontbijt, tja, je bent belangrijk of je bent het niet; kwam de chauffeur (commercieel directeur himself!!) met luxe auto meneer bij het hotel ophalen. Om vervolgens de dag tot 17u op kantoor met collega's die hij nooit heeft gezien door te brengen.. Dit is reeds een maand van te voren besproken hoor, er was zelf en geheel programma opgezet.. Annemarth is met de rest van de groep op ...
