Dear all,
We arrived in Santiago on Wednesday 26th of March! How nice it is to discover a new country, continent and new language. South America is totally new for us and we already love the long evenings and nights here. It is probably the first country in our world trip where restaurants and bars can still serve you after 11pm ;-) So, we enjoyed Santiago for 3 days, during which we visited a bit of the city, welcomed Agnes' Mum who will be travelling with us for 2 weeks, met Bessie (thanks to our London friend, Miguel) and finally saw Denis, Agnes' cousin who is now living in Chile, travelling all around the country & South America, produce & sell jewellery with his very nice Chilean girlfriend, Isi. In this section you will see pics of Santiago but also our first day in Patagonia/Punta Arenas. We will stay here 2 weeks roughly before going back to Santiago. The atmosphere here in Punta Arenas is a kind of "end of the world" one, very cold, dry and windy...wild dogs in the "dead streets", old houses, and a nice view on the detroit of Magellan...Check out the usual sections for more pics such as Chile. Tomorrow we are heading to Puerto Natales, the Torre del Pain national park, its glaciers etc.
