First Day in Chile!

We arrived in Santiago, Chile early this morning after a long flight. I managed to get some sleep, but not enough! After a long, complicated process, we got our bags, got on the bus, and drove to Vina del Mar. I got a little more sleep during the ride.
The city is beautiful! The buildings are very "Spanish" and the ocean is gorgeous. Luckily, when we arrived at the hotel, our rooms were ready so we could get settled right away. Then, we explored the city before lunch, mostly just the coastline. After lunch, we walked inland to a crafts booth and then to a large mall. By 2pm, we were all exhausted and went back to the hotel. I took a nap and showered before dinner. We ate in a Mexican restaurant. The food was great and I had a lot of fun.
Tomorrow, we are going to the university to meet everyone we will be spending time with for the next 2 weeks. I can't wait to meet them!

Hasta Luego!
