Hello from Santiago, Chile. we arrived this morning/afternoon on sunday 20th. which is quite strange because we have already done sunday 20th in Australia!! crazy time change. the flight from Sydney was very long and cramped. we stopped at Auckland airport, New Zealand for about half an hour (add to countries i have visited?!) and then along the bottom of the pacific ocean. We arrived to clear blue skies and hot sunshine. The terrain is very different here, lots of sand,dust and desert around. with the incredible backdrop of some of the Andes Mountains. we are both feeling pretty ill at the moment i have blocked up synthesis and mat hasd a sore throat. I slept for about 7hrs after checking into our hostel, then we went for a walk in our district. there is a distinct european feel to the place, the buildings and the streets would not look out of place in many european countries. Our plan is to either head up the surf coast of chile to peru. or to head to the town of Mendoza in Argentina which we have heard lots of good things about. alot depends on time and money (and when Boca play River in Buenos aries!!!) anyway updates to come soon...
buenas noches. Alex
