“he who has WoW knowest”

Ahoy! Serban’s pick, Huasco was somewhat of a fiasco, in terms of beauty, comfort and all things tourists like. But I got a chance to try mussels- a mussel soup with some pincers and jelly like meat. I still haven’t broken my puking record (of not puking since I was 5) but it was close. Lili tried to help but she turned green as well shortly after.

The morning was cold and gray so we left for La Serena, cute resort, like a big Mamaia, but very clean and western-like. I spent some time in the sun and we made it to Santiago around 10pm.

The apartment we almost rented was really tiny ( a couple would have slept in the kitchen) so we moved to a nearby hotel which looks more like a modern art museum than a hotel, and its really cheap considering the prices in Chile. Oh, and by the way, now I know where all the fruits from Chile grow- a 100 km’s away from Santiago there re green hills – coming from Atacama, its very easy to spot the green, and everything is cultivated there. We got 2 kg of cherries for $3!!!

Darlings, its 1 am here, so more to come about Santiago when we start exploring.
