Well we arrived in Chile at last but not without our share of trouble. Our luggage was misplaced on Auckland and when found a day later it was sent to Argentina instead. It is fair to say our bags have seen more of the world than we will on this trip. Needless to say we have overcome this obstacle and are now in Santiago staying with Nadia´s family. Everyone here is very generous and hospitable and although I can´t understand a word they are saying I´m sure they like me alot! (NADIA: My abuelita or grandma thinks Jonno is ¨very handsome¨and likes to teach him spanish. It is safe to say that he has sucessfully charmed his way into my family).
We would like to thank Lan Chile Airlines for only serving drinks for the first 2 hours of the 11 hour flight. We are making up for it now however by buying six packs for $3.20US. Tommorrow we head to Viña Del Mar on the coast of Chile, then we start heading north. Stay tuned for more of our crazy adventures.
p.s. we have started a photo gallery where we are collecting shots of all the different beers we drink on the trip, so watch it grow as our livers suffer.
