The view from the plane as we approached Santiago is quite spectacular and a taste of our adventures to come with high craggy snow capped mountains that must be full of local legend and history. Santiago itself is quite dry and a mixture of dead flat and sharply rising hills/mountains in the middle of the flatness.
We drove by too many slums before arriving at our hotel in Central Santiago. We are looking forward to exploring it tomorrow but today we only had the energy for a fantastic seafood lunch at the "mercado central" - famous seafood markets before succumbing to jet lag so I am writing this at 1 am Santiago time- just couldn't keep the peepers open.
The blog will be short on visuals till we work out how to upload them but hope to sort that out soon.
