Ramon Carnicer 21 Santiago, Chile, 2-22227022
After 2 monster flights each and 30 offers of a taxi (¿quiero un taxi?) at Santiago airport, we left for the city centre. During the 26km ride, our taxi driver was keen to increase his English vocab, much to our blank looks, but luvkily the topic of football came up and we were sorted. We made it to Hotel Principado to find a very nice welcoming man who spoke little English but gave us the key to a two bedroomed apartment, very nice. Quick shower and we were off to explore the delights Santia...

Santiago, Chile franleeWell, lots has happened since we arrived in Chile, but I'll write about it later! Edit - OK so I forgot to write about it, but essentially - * We spent lots of time getting hammered with Chileans in the Transformer bar. They helpfully pointed out that Mike is Kurt Cobain and therefore HE´S FROM HELL!!! * We went to see Lucha Libre which was awesome. Funky Joe and his patented StinkFace move ...
Santiago, Chile hadlandia... There are also markets for flowers and Vega Chica/ Vega Central for just about everything else. Narrow but fun. Corn on the cob the thickness of baseball bats.Avocados the size of small pears to the size of softballs. Yum. It's bit hotter here than BA (I think), but our hotel doesn't have a/c and I maybe having a harder time with the heat, without being able to cool down, Kev is dealing. The smog is quite thick, as we were close (visually) to the Andes and ...
Santiago, Chile stends... to the sofa in the common room where he continued to snore and woke up the couple in the room adjacent to the common room!! Once we had eventually torn ourselves away from Pucon we headed North to the port of Valparaiso. It was so quaint there with old, colourful houses on steep hills, cobbled streets and views everywhere of the sea. This had been the main port for ships to dock into before going around Cape Horn, but after the Panama Canal opened the ...
Santiago, Chile damosarah... and I need every body's help to save Tony from total desperation. Here is what is happening: 24 hours before departure Tony decided to buy himself a new fancy I-phone, which turned to be a total disaster. Tony's major technological accomplishment is changing a light bulb. and said that, you can imagine that and anything involving shaking and scratching the screen to make a simple phone call, is not his cup of tea. He spent several highly ...
Santiago, Chile dionea... of walking. But it's alright - I need the exercise, especially after all those recent big meals. The bus ride to Santiago ended up taking close to two hours, though I was told it should only be 90 minutes. On the trip, I glanced down at my forearms and marveled at how dark they had become. I have the worst farmer's tan right now - the disparity between my upper and lower arms is quite striking. But I suppose it's not really a farmer's tan ...
Santiago, Chile pwong... group. <br><br> <br><br>By this point we'd got to know plenty of our fellow hostellers and the young mainly male hostel staff were a riot, so we were soon all cavorting with glitter & streamers like a bunch of, erm, drunken travellers! <br><br><br><br>Katie was loving her ...
