Nothing really exciting happened today. We went to the beach in Viña del Mar and had weird sushi for lunch. Also we saw a clock made out of flowers!! Then we took the wrong metro back to Valpo, which doesnt actually go to Valpo. However on the positive side, that train had a really cute boy on it who was playing peek-a-boo with me, he was worth the extra 20 minutes in the wrong direction.
Once back we decided to be smart and buy our tickets for Mendoza. It was very annoyingly chaotic in the bus terminal and we got slightly frustrated with the first lady we talked to and ventured to find a different company. Alas, we are traveling to Argentina on Sunday; we will depart at 8:30 and arrive in Mendoza 8 hours later. We will let you know how much we just looooove taking long bus rides through the Andes.

The biggest, well one of the biggest, highlights of today happened this morning. Katie woke up with a very swollen face and couldnt figure out why. She tried to wake me up, but I was unfortunately dead to the world. She ventured into the bathroom to discover her face on one side was incredibly swollen near her lip. When I saw her 1.5 hours later it was "much better", yet still quite large. After I asked her about it, she said she woke up in the middle of the night realizing she was biting her cheek in her sleep. This caused her face to swell and it took until after breakfast to go away.

Thank goodness to big bird it wasnt a real infection or a bug bite that caused her temporary enlargement. (her bottom lip was almost twice the size and its already twice the size of mine).

The other highlight is the fact that we like to order meat here from the grocery stores. Sadly, we need to learn how to do it properly. We only know how to ask for half a kilo which is a bit much for our needs. This time i just said... a little bit and had him just ask when to stop and using a lot of hand signals. We will see how I can improve on ordering turkey in South America.

We are offically tired now and needing a lot of rest! So we are headed to bed soon, within an hour for sure! (yes we know it is only 7:45 here).

Buenas Noches
