This weekend we finally made our way into Santiago. We started by going up Cerro San Cristobal. Cerro is hill in Spanish so its this big hill looking over Santiago and they've put a statue of the virgin Mary up there. We took a cable car up to the top and took in the fantastic view over the city.

From there we heading into the center and made our way to an outdoor  pub in the middle of this market place. It was great. We ended up hanging out there until late in the evening. We made friends with some psycho guy who kept asking for some our wine in between talking to himself. He spoke some English so decided that we were his friends. He was very entertaining, because he was so crazy.

A guy with a guitar came buy and started singing The Beatles for us after he found out Mark was from Liverpool. So the whole crowd at the bar was singing along to the beatles.

We both had caricatures drawn of us which look ok. I also had a portrait drawn and I'm hoping it doesn't look too much like me.... Otherwise I'm really quite ugly.
