Arrived here on my second Saturday, 8th November, 2008!
I felt a bit fuzzy after the long flight but all went well at the airport. The hotel was very nice.
As I had a small kitchen, I went out to get some money and find some food. Stopped in a square to have a coffee and cake and watch the world go by and then chilled out.
Sunday I joined a guided tour of Santiago. It was quick and fun. The presidential Palace was interestingly small. We ended up in a nice jewellry shop...
Met my new travelling companions on Sunday evening. I am definitely the oldest this time, but they all seem fine!
The truck is very different from Penelope... no fridge, inward facing seats, but generally seems good, just different. I am using my own tent...nice!
I think this town of Pucon needs to be chilled out in! There is a lake, an active volcano and an excellent campsite. Almost like being in Germany/Austria/Switzerland.
Travelling is good.

Now I can find out where you are. Is it the original tent or a new one? I hope the new truck gets a name. All is well here at number 1. Ekko was almost his usual barky self at his training class tonight.
Take care
Love J & A
