Hello again.
It´s Tuesday morning now and we're about to head off to the airport to fly up to San Pedro de Atacama for a few days in the desert. Apparently there are lots of beautiful things to see up there, although one of them involves a 4am start to see the sunrise. I'm only just falling asleep by 4am some days!
We´ve had a great few days in Santiago. Once we'd got acclimatised we really liked the place, and found some cool areas away from the hustle and bustle of the centre. We found a great restaurant last night called ¨Las Vacas Gordas¨ (The Fat Cows), which is what we felt like after the meal! Food and drink is pretty cheap here (although not as cheap as in Asia), and the people are generally friendly. Its really surprising how few of them speak any English though - we´ve had to resort to sign-language and Google Translator when our vocabulary has failed us!
We´ve changed our plans for next week a bit. When we fly back to Santiago on Saturday we're not going to stay in town but instead will catch an overnight bus down to Pucon in the Lake District. The last time we went on an overnight bus was from Hanoi to Hue - about 190 days ago!
Hope you´re all doing well and thanks for still reading this!
