Lance and I have been blessed with good health, good friends and family and good cable access in Santiago. Holla! (please note that Hola is not to be confused with Holla - the first is a Spanish greeting; the second is a slang exclamation). We were lucky enough to have HBO in our little apartment in Santiago and just caught the season 3 premiere to Game of Thrones. Yes, we are geeks, but that is why we are totally awesome. Did I mention we have been into the local Cab Sav? Big fans!
Okay, today was a very good day. We slept in and got over our jet lag and ventured out to see some of the local parks.
These first set of pictures are from Parque del Cerro Santa Lucia which was just a block from our apartment.After a quick walk to the top, it afforded excellent views of Santiago.
Our next stop after a quick lunch was Cerro San Cristobal accessible by funicular (otherwise known as old school uphill awesome trolly):

ReplyDeleteps. I didn't get the job. No biggie.
pps. I cooked easter dinner for 25 people. I didn't realize I had that much step-family and do you know how much food that is???? A crazy amount. 20lbs of mashed potatoes.
Lots of love
