After a loooong ass day of travel, Amy and I have finally checked into our room. We arrived in Santiago @ around 9am (6 am MST) and grabbed a cab and found the apartment we are staying at for the next 4 nights. We were unable to check in until 2pm, so we left our bags and after some meager attempts at what little Spanish we know and some charades we were satisfied with the accommodations and ventured out to find something to put in our empty food caves. We ate, shopped for fresh produce to stock our new crib with and grabbed some pics. We currently just got back to the apartment and are now happily putting our feet up with some freshly chilled vino from the market.
After strolling to the main square near our apartment we continued to wander down a pedestrian street and came across a small fish market along with restaurants and shops. This is a shot of the tiny restaurant we decided to stuff our faces at.
It felt very local given the proximity to the tourist center. The people were fantastic and we managed to order some delicious food again, through charades and our bible (spanish phrase book)

Holy sh@t the fish looked so good here!
This is a craft like flower we bought off some mime hippies. Yes, I've decided to call them mime hippies. They were very nice - didn't talk and had white face paint, but none the less very nice and talented!
This is the center of the fish market. Many shops and small restaurants.....
