Tag Archives: inside santiago

Thursday night – inside Santiago.

Nice day in Santiago.. though i spent nearly all of it indoors.   It is a beautiful city with beautiful people with a beautiful (but for me) impenetrable Spanish  accent.

 

here’s the view from the hotel.

.. I didn’t get outside until a run at 6:30

I managed to help this guy push his stalled truck out of an intersection.. I was taking this picture then realized he needed help. Two Australian girls came and helped us as well

Later in the eveing, Our wonderful host Ivan took us through the subways to the center of town..

here’s the river that bisects santiago

we went to a nice area of shops and restaurant. We picked a Columbian place in honor of Ivan who’s from Columbia

Empanadas

Who’s this guy on their money ?   He looks very smart !

OK.. gotta sleep. I’m goign to jump in the tub.. and see if the water swirls the other way 🙂
