First impressions of Chile on arrival were that the Chilaens really need to work on their public image. Santiago is an amazing city in some areas but the route from the domestic airport to central Santiago takes you through the dingiest neighbourhoods in the city.
I arrived in Bario (Nei…

IN TRANSIT WITH THE KILLERS
I was a little early to the airport, but this gave me plenty of time to run errands. You have to pay an $18 USD airport tax when you leave Argentina. No biggie since there is no Visa fee when you arrive. I did the money exchange for Chilean pesos.…

I arrived into Chile through the hustle and bustle, known as Santiago. We spent a couple of days here... I took to it immediately. It was like any other big city- loud, noisy, dirty- but I love that sort of thing. My friend, Nicki, picked me up at the airport. Prior to me coming, she war…

We had a so-so buffet breakfast at the InterContinental, then Jaime picked us up for OUR FIRST DAY OF FLYING! We were excited beyond words. I kindly volunteered LISA to fly first -- she's used to the Cessna, after all. I am a low wing gal. I was hoping to watch and learn something before actually h…

WOW. Today we saw something truly magnificent. I wasnt going to blog again until after Punta Arenas but I had to bore you all with a million photos of ice. We had a really rough day's sailing to get to the Magellan Straight but it was worth it. Getting out of our bunks at 8am was hard (we've been w…

OK, so now that I’ve done a little self-reflection, and I still have somewhere around 9hours left on a bus(a comfy one though!), I figured I’d work on writing about the rest of Chile. I believe I got through Tuesday. It’s now next Tuesday, so I’d better get to work. Last Wednesday was rathe…

After recovering from the longest day of my life we began to explore Santiago. On our first day in Santiago the little spanish we speak got us in a sticky situation. We ordered tea with milk but got a cup of hot milk with a tea bag in. The funnist cuppa I´ve ever had!!
Whilst in…

Today I went on a trip that Jose had planned for me. I’m not sure whether he’s trying to be helpful or just testing my endurance ;-) I caught a train, then had to change to another train, then find where the bus went from to visit a winery and then back to the train terminus to catc…

The mood was set for our trip to Chile as soon as we crossed the boarder. From the plane you could see the Andes, these beautiful pristine mountains that bring a sense of calm. San Tiago, Chile is much the same, very calm. I’m not sure if it’s the neighborhood we’re …

Well, we're back in Arizona... boo! On the plane (no problems, by the way!) we were all quite melancholy about leaving. There's just something about Santiago that makes me feel as if a part of me is missing. Arriving in Phoenix, I kept thinking that the baggage people were going to talk to me in Sp…
