Chile - A Traveler's Tale
(by Tim Carr)
I wanted to show you some pictures from a trip that I recently took to Chile.
If you ever make it to Chile, I highly recommend it... It's worth the trip!

E.J., I have to say, real men travel to cold places too...not just the beaches of Thailand.

This is what Patagonia looks like...

This is definitely the kind of place to do some real hiking and cold weather camping (like the old days).

 

The people we met and the places we visited we're all amazing.

I would say the Churrasco surpasses my all time favorite sandwich (beef and cheese from the ale house in the States.)

The Chilean beer...not so good. They do however make a wonderful drink called Pisco Sour and the wine is very good, plentiful and cheap. That was what I wanted to hear!

Day or night, as soon as you enter someone's house, you are offered both. Its a beautiful thing and a great custom. (Hic.!)

Speaking of beautiful...Chilean women, especially around Santiago and the beaches. Wow.

Fair skin, dark hair, freckles. I'm fairly sure that I am supposed to return in a few years to marry my friends cousin.

I don't know if her father Dante' was OK with that, but her mother was all for it. She said that I seemed like "Such a nice Gringo".

Why wait a few years? Well, she needs to finish college first!

Spanish classes begin next week...

Facts from Chile
Santiago is one of the few place from which you can fly to Easter Island. Personally, I always wanted to see those big stone heads.
