Santiago Day 4-5

My flights back from home were both on time. I don't think I've ever had a smoother trip than the flights to and from home for this visit (not that I'm complaining!). The only unfortunate thing was the lack of sleep, but luckily my room was ready when I got to the hotel so I could shower and just lie down.

The next couple of days were spent researching. I spent some time looking at some more websites on Torres del Paine and spent a good chunk of time looking at Easter Island before we head there.

Allan arrived at the hotel late on the 11th. I was so happy to see him, and all in one piece too! We got some food in him and then went up to the room. We spent some time emptying his bags to clean some things and air them out. He also had the longest hot shower of his life, shaved, and showered again. He definitely missed the hot water.

By the time everything was organized, it was pretty late, and we had to get up early so Allan could pack before our flight in the morning. Despite his bad cough and being tired, he seems no worse for wear.Read more
