Chile-Day 3
Today it was kind of rainy, so it was a stay at Perri's house kind of day, with a little shopping sprinkled in. Here I am admiring the cinnamon sticks at the local bakery. We also bought some sugared banana chips...yummy!
We also drove to downtown Santiago to see some of the places we might want to visit later this week. We saw the Chile version of the White House. It sometimes has a big fountain and a reflecting pool in front, but it didn't tonight. Dada went to take a picture and the brand new batteries died! (Thanks 99 cent store...I am sure he can here everyone saying "you get what you pay for"!)
This year is also the bicentennial for Chile...which Dada thought was cool, but I just said "What?"
We went shopping at this big place called Lider. It is a cross between a supermarket and a department store. Also, in Chile they have some soda bottles that you recycle and some you throw away. The ones you throw away are more expensive!
Early (okay, early for me) to bed today to get an early start...we hope.

Wow -- that's SOME cinnamon stick! It's almost as big as you are! Bet it smelled great in that store, didn't it? Sorry it was rainy -- hope today is better and you get to see all the things you plan to. I love that Dada is getting lots of pictures on Facebook -- thanks for taking them!
