1. I want to thank everyone for the comments. It's really great to hear from you guys!
2. I want to say, "best wishes to Anna this weekend," as she's getting married. I wish you all of the happiness in the world and wish I could be there.
3. Speaking of weddings and colorful, lively, beautiful parts of life... here are pictures from our group trip to Bellavista (the area of Santiago that's kind of like Dupont in that it's artsy and filled with restaurants, clubs, and shops):
A crepe stand:
A restaurant named after the book/movie "Like water for chocolate:"
If a restaurant is really good they give it 7 forks (kind of like 5 stars):
A REALLY old house (now a museum):
A mural next to Pablo Neruda's house (at least the one in Santiago. He had many):
Pablo Neruda's house (the pillars in front have some of his poems on them):
Another mural:
A Porsche... or another mural:
The restaurant where we ate (it translates to a house in the air):
The ceiling of the restaurant:
I hope I haven't bored you.
Bueno bye.

ReplyDeleteAnd whoo! for Neruda.
I hope the Chileans aren't sounding quite as fast anymore. Also, I hope the 40 min commute is safe and happy every day, it sounds intense :)
