Caesar Business Santiago Chile

... next morning we awoke, packed (as we were leaving on the midnight bus down south) and headed out to get to the top of the nearby Cerro San Cristóbal hill. The peak is the second highest point in the city and was named by the Spanish conquistadors for St Christopher, in recognition of its use as a landmark. At the top we took in the great view of Santiago, planned out the next stages of our trip down south and walked through the hilly forest back into town.<br><br>Some ...

... up from though!<br><br>My flight has just been listed up for 9.10pm tonight. I think it drops in at Lima on the way to New York. All the Kiwi people I´d met up with have disappeared on other flights and there appears to just me and a contingent of Australians going to some motorbike convention in Paraguay. They looked even more worse for wear than what I did. I think.<br><br>A few mundane photos of Santiago Airport - can´t really see ...

... flower clock ...<br><br>We also ventured out to the skiing area of Colorado. It was all nicely organised and at 11am we were on our skies, taking the first Chilean slope in our stride. The pistes were all very nicely prepared and the area was much larger than we (spoilt Europeans) expected, but as it was all smooth sailing, the skiing was so easy that I even ventured down the black pistes! Of course Ivo was much faster and cooler than I was, but then my ...

... wir den ersten Tag mit Sightseeing verbracht hatten, entschlossen wir uns auch noch das Nachtleben von Santiago zu erkunden. Dies taten wir im Partybezirk von Santiago, Bellavista. Nach einigen Glaesern unseres bisher billigsten suedamerikanischeb Bieres (umgerechnet ca. 2 US Dollar pro Liter), zogen wir zusammen mit einem Einheimeischen von um die Haeuser. Seltsamerweise schien das billige Bier sowohl ...

... actually means Dolphins (close enough). The size of the bloody things when they rose by the boat vindicated any incorrect translation he may have given. <br><br> <br><br> One ticket for another long bus trip of 17hrs to Bariloche please.<br><br> <br><br> Where previous I thought I had seen it all standing in front of the Perito Moreno glacier after running up Cerro Cateral (2388m) I was met with an outlook that ...

... our jam sandwich and dwindling water supply, just in case... - Our jungle guide managing to spot all number of nocturnal animals, including tarantulas and monkeys, in the pitch black but completely missing the biggest frog and spider we've ever seen during a day time canyon walk. - Watching Kamal sprint after a departing night bus, faster than he has ever run on a hockey pitch, to retrieve our bags ...

... my new found food place on the corner. I had a hunch they would be open early for the people on their way to work. They made the buttys just like I would and only used the circle bit of the bacon and not that scrag end streaky bit. Not fat on it at all and loads of brown sauce MMmmmm now THAT's what I call breakfast ! Got to the airport in plenty of time for my flight and used the free wi fi to update facebook so my with my whereabouts. Boarded ...

... are absolutely loads of nice bars and restaurants, and the people at the hostel are really cool. Having loads of fun! Unfortunately, things are quite expensive here, and the cash is going down quite rapidly, which means we might have to hotfoot it to the pennypinchers haven that is Bolivia quite soon! Our plan is to head up to a few places along the chilean coast, and then up to the atacama desert, and across to Bolivia to do a tour of the salt flats. Fun times ahead. Chau.

... Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon and one of their premiums: Almaviva at $20 per glass! One of the wines produced in the winery is called 'Castillo de Diablo' meaning the Devil's cellar which actually one of our favorites. The wine was so called because Concha y Toro (founder) noticed that his wine was going missing from the cellar and so he made up a story that the Devil lived there ...

... het zicht op de oceaan. (Gelukkig waren het geen olietenkers!) Halvewege de middag tot 2x nog een show gehad van een vijftal vliegtuigjes die verschillende partronen vlogen!! Annemarth heeft het later die middag (én later nu nog in Nederland.. ) echter wel heel erg te verduren gehad. Dacht nog even snel bruin te worden en had een 'ik smeer me niet in' mentaliteit... heel slim in Chli!!; van neus ...
